The synthesis of C-4 dideuteriated and both C-4 monodeuteriated enantiomers of NNK, the metabolic precursor to a variety of potential carcinogens, starting from (2S)-glutamic acid and nicotinic acid is described. The route is suitable for the synthesis of NNK isotopomers labelled in each of the putative sites for metabolic activation.
