We have prepared three of the four possible diastereomers of ethyl 6-oxo-2- (methoxycarbonyl) decahydroisoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid (two cis-ring and one trans ring juncture ketones, 3a-c) by a convergent route from (&)-m-tyrosine. These ketones are useful intermediates for the preparation of conformationally constrained acidic amino acids as N- methyl-D-aspartic acid (NMDA) receptor antagonists, eg, LY274614 and LY233536 (1 and ...
