Abstract

A new and advantageous synthesis of 2-endo-substituted-6-endo-(methylthio)bicyclo [2.2.1]heptanes, especially suitable for the preparation of such compounds with 2-endo-hydroxy and amino substituents, is presented. Also reported is the synthesis of the conformationally restricted methionine analogue (±)-2-endo-amino-6-endo-(methylthio)bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-2-exo-carboxylic acid and its crystal and molecular structure determined by X-ray crystallographic techniques.
