โฆ Synopsis
A new general method for the preparation of 2-alkyl-pipecolic acids has been developed. The syntheses of 2-methyl-, 2-benzyl-and cis-6-methylpipecolic acids are described. (-)S-and (+)R-2-methylpipecolic acids were resolved by fractional crystallization of the quinine salt of their N-carbobenzoxy derivative. Isolation of (-)S-cis-6-methylpipecolic acid required the use of 4-phenylbenzyloxycarbonyl as protecting group to achieve selective crystallization of the quinine salt. The absolute configurations of these compounds were determined by circular dichroism.

Three protected 3-substituted pipecolic acid analogs were prepared as constrained chimeric amino acid building blocks. The concise synthetic route enables the synthesis of other derivatives with sidechaln functionality of amino acids as well.
