Abstract
An efficient synthesis of (1__R__,5__S__)-6-(5-cyano-3-pyridinyl)-3,6-diaza-bicyclo[3.2.0]heptane A-366833, a novel potent selective neuronal nicotinic receptor (NNR) agonist, is described. The enantiomerically pure pharmacophore benzyl (1__S__,5__S__)-3,6-diaza-bicyclo[3.2.0]heptane-3-carbamate was successfully constructed from benzyl N-allyl-N-(2-hydroxyimino-ethyl)-carbamate through a convenient approach including an intramolecular [1,3]-dipolar cycloaddition, reductive ring-opening reaction, chiral resolution, and intramolecular cyclization. Subsequent N-arylation of the pharmacophore with 3-bromo-5-cyanopyridine and N-Cbz deprotection with trifluoroacetic acid furnished A-366833.

We report the synthesis of a series of [3.2.1]azabicyclic biaryl ethers as selective agonists of a3and a6-containing nicotinic receptors. In particular, compound 17a from this series is a potent a3b4 and a6/4b4 receptor agonist in terms of both binding and functional activity. Compound 17a also show
