✦ Synopsis

The homolytic decarboxylation of a 3-cyclopropylglutamate derivative yields some rearrangement product whereas that of a 3-fluoroglutamate derivative yields the decarboxylation product without elimination. These results are discussed in relationship with the study of vitamin K-dependent carboxylation. The mechanism of the post-ribosomal carboxylation of glutamyl residues catalyzed by
