RESUMO
The title compound, C6H9NO4·H2O [systematic name: (αR,1R,2S)-rel-α-amino-2-carb-oxy-cyclo-propane-acetic acid monohydrate], crystallizes with two organic mol-ecules and two water mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit. The space group is P21 and the organic mol-ecules are enanti-omers, thus this is an example of a 'false conglomerate' with two mol-ecules of opposite handedness in the asymmetric unit (r.m.s. overlay fit = 0.056â Å for one mol-ecule and its inverted partner). Each mol-ecule exists as a zwitterion, with proton transfer from the amino acid carb-oxy-lic acid group to the amine group. In the crystal, the components are linked by N-Hâ¯O and O-Hâ¯O hydrogen bonds, generating (100) sheets. Conformationally restricted glutamate analogs are of inter-est due to their selective activation of different glutamate receptors, and the naturally occurring (+)-CCG-III is an inhibitor of glutamate uptake and the key geometrical parameters are discussed.
RESUMO
Transformation of the simple hydrocarbon cyclooctatetraene into a variety of polycyclic skeletons was achieved by sequential coordination to iron, reaction with electrophiles followed by allylated nucleophiles, decomplexation and olefin metathesis.
RESUMO
The reactivity of (2-alkenyl-3-pentene-1,5-diyl)iron complexes toward olefin metathesis, cycloaddition, and mild oxidations (MnO 2 or mCPBA) was examined. Cycloaddition reactions were observed to occur with modest diastereoselectivity (33-63% de). Decomplexation of the (3-pentenediyl) ligand may be accomplished by oxidation with either CAN or alkaline hydrogen peroxide to afford vinylcyclopropanecarboxylates or divinylcyclopropanecarboxylates. Reduction of the latter, followed by Cope rearrangement generates cycloheptadienylmethanols. These studies demonstrate that (2-alkenyl-3-pentene-1,5-diyl)iron complexes can serve as organometallic scaffolds for the preparation of a wide variety of structural motifs containing up to 5 contiguous stereocenters.

Addition of alkenyl Grignard reagents to (1-methoxycarbonylpentadienyl)iron(1+) cation generates the corresponding (2-alkenylpent-3-en-1,5-diyl)iron complexes. Oxidatively induced-reductive elimination of these complexes gives divinylcyclopropanes which can undergo subsequent Cope rearrangement to give 1,4-cycloheptadienes.
RESUMO
The addition of carbon and heteroatom nucleophiles to (bicyclo[5.1.0]octadienyl)Fe(CO)(2)L(+) cations 5 or 8 (L = CO, PPh(3)) generally proceeds via attack at the dienyl terminus on the face of the ligand opposite to iron to generate 6-substituted (bicyclo[5.1.0]octa-2,4-diene)iron complexes (11 or 13). In certain cases, these products are unstable with respect to elimination of a proton and the nucleophilic substituent to afford (cyclooctatetraene)Fe(CO)(2)L (4 or 7). Decomplexation of 13f, arising from addition of phthalimide to 8, gave N-(bicyclo[5.1.0]octa-3,5-dien-2-yl)phthalimide (19). Oxidative cleavage of 19 (RuCl(3)/NaIO(4)) followed by esterification gave the cyclopropane diester 22, which upon hydrolysis gave cis-2-(2'-carboxycyclopropyl)glycine (CCG-III, 18) (eight steps from 4, 43% overall yield). This methodology was also utilized for preparation of stereospecifically deuterated CCG-III (d-18) and optically enriched (-)-18. Deprotonation of 22 resulted in cyclopropane ring opening to afford the benzoindolizidine (23).
