An enantioselectivesynthesis of (–)- cis -2-aminomethylcyclopropanecarboxylic acid [(–)-CAMP] has been achieved in 2.5% total yield over ten steps starting from 2-furaldehyde. The synthesis features diastereoselective cyclopropane formation via diazene, followed by oxime formation and the reduction, for construction of the γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) motif.
