title: Synthesis and platelet aggregation inhibition activity of a series of enantiomeric bicyclo[3.2.0]heptane-6-oximinoacetic acids (1).
abstract: Opening of racemic epoxide (3) with (3S)- or (3R)-dimethyl-3-(dimethyl-t-butylsilyloxy)oct-1-ynyl aluminum gave two regioisomers, which were separated chromatographically. The separated regioisomers, themselves mixtures of chromatographically inseparable diastereoisomers, were converted into their dicobalthexacarbonyl complexes, which were easily resolved and isolated by chromatography. The individual diastereoisomers were deprotected to give bicyclo[3.2.0]heptan-3-ones, whose absolute stereochemistry was assigned using circular dichroism. One of these compounds, (1R,2R,3S,5R,3'S)-3-(3'-hydroxyoct-1'-ynyl)-bicyclo[3.2.0]++ +heptan-2-ol-6- oximinoacetic acid (11a) was 4.5 times more potent than PGE1 in inhibiting the ADP-induced aggregation of human platelets. The next most potent compound in this series was the "ent-15-epi" compound (11b), which was 0.034 times the potency of PGE1 in the platelet aggregation assay.
