✦ Synopsis
Abstract
The fumarase inhibitor, bromomescaconic acid, has been synthesized with ^13^C labeling in the bromomethyl group. Di‐t‐butyl acetylene‐dicarboxylate was converted with Li (^13^CH~3~)~2~Cu to di‐t‐butyl (methyl‐^13^C)citraconate. Photochemical isomerization of this to di‐t‐butyl (methyl‐^13^C)mesaconate, followed by deblocking with trifluoroacetic acid gave the title compound.
