3-Benzyl-3-azabicyclo[3.1.1]heptan-6-one: a promising building block for medicinal chemistry

Org Lett. 2010 Oct 1;12(19):4372-5. doi: 10.1021/ol101866x.

Abstract

An efficient two-step multigram synthesis of the previously unknown 3-benzyl-3-azabicyclo[3.1.1]heptan-6-one is described. The compound is shown to be a promising building block for further selective derivatization of the cyclobutane ring providing novel conformationally restricted piperidine derivatives.
