An Expeditious Asymmetric Synthesis of (-)-(1R,2S) -Cispentacin

Abstract
The antifungal antibiotic (-)-(1R,2S) -2-aminocyclopentane-1-carboxylic acid (cispentacin) 4 has been prepared via the highly stereoselective conjugate addition reaction of lithium (S)-(α-methylbenzyl)benzylamide (S)-2 to tert -butyl 1-cyclopentene-1-carboxylate 1.
