✦ Synopsis


Four novel stereoisomers of 7-(1-phenylethyl)-2-oxa-7-azabicyclo[3.2.0]heptan-6-one were prepared under high pressure from [2 ] 2] cycloaddition of the pure enantiomers of 1-phenylethyl isocyanate and 2,3dihydrofuran. Their conformational preferences in solution and the absolute conÐgurations of the bridgehead carbon atoms were unambiguously determined by 1H NMR spectroscopy using tris[3-(2,2,2-triÑuoro-1-hydroxyethylidene)-d-camphorato]europium(III) and (R)-or (S)-1-(9-anthryl)-2,2,2-triÑuoroethanol (PirkleÏs alcohols). MM2 single-point energy calculations were consistent with the experimentally determined stereochemistry.
