A sequence of Michael addition of a primary amine onto methyl 2-chloro-2-cyclopropylidene-acetate (1), acylation of the adduct with α-bromo acid chlorides under modified Schotten-Baumann conditions and ring-closing twofold nucleophilic substitution on the thus formed bishalides 3a–e with aliphatic or aromatic amines according to a very simple protocol with final acid/base extraction or filtration over silica gel for purification leads to the 3-spirocyclopropanated 5-oxopiperazine-2-carboxylates 2 or in two cases, after intermolecular transesterification of 2, to bicyclic oxopiperazines 6, with a remarkable variability of the substituents R1–R3 in 39–99% yields (20 examples). Starting with α-bromophenylacetic acid chloride, the trans-configured 6-phenyl-5-oxopiperazine-2-carboxylates are formed preferentially.
