(Figure presented) We have recently completed the synthesis of 1-[2-(4-cyclobutyl-[1,4]diazepane-1-carbonyl)-4-(3-fluoro-phenoxy) -pyrrolidin-1-yl]-ethanone, a hydroxyproline-based H3 receptor antagonist, on 100 g scale. The synthesis proceeds through four steps and route selection was driven by a desire to minimize the cost-of-goods. Naturally occurring trans-4-hydroxy-L-proline was chosen as the precursor to the targets core, which necessitated an inversion at both stereogenic centers. The inversions were accomplished through strategic employment of La Rosas lactone and a late-stage Mitsunobu reaction. A first generation synthesis that employed N-Boc-homopiperazine was improved in a second generation approach wherein homopiperazine was directly desymmetrized. Finally, the water solubility of a key intermediate necessitated the development of a nonextractive workup for the sodium triacetoxyborohydride reduction.

N-Substituted 5-aza-2-oxa-3-oxo-bicycloheptanes are conformationally rigid models that have been used in several 1H-NMR studies.They have previously been obtained by multistep processes.We have devised a one step synthesis for these compounds.The utility of this new route has been demonstrated for five differently N-substituted substrates.
