The reaction of N-benzyloxycarbonyl-L-prolinal 5 with (methoxycarbonylmethylene)triphenylphosphorane in CH2Cl2 afforded methyl (E)-3-[(2'S)-N-benzyloxycarbonylpyrrolidin-2'-yl]propenoate 7. When the reaction was performed in MeOH, an appreciable amount of the (Z)-isomer 6 was obtained. Compounds 7 and 6 were dihydroxylated to the corresponding 2,3-dihydroxy esters 8-9 and 20 21, respectively. The stereochemistry of the latter compounds could be determined after their transformations into the corresponding 1,2-dihydroxypyrrolizidin-3-ones 11-16 and 23-25, respectively. Finally, lactams 11, 16, and 25 were reduced to the related pyrrolizidines 14, 19, and 27. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
