title: Synthesis of N(1)-substituted analogues of (2R,4R)-4-amino-pyrrolidine-2,4-dicarboxylic acid as agonists, partial agonists, and antagonists of group II metabotropic glutamate receptors.
abstract: The chemical synthesis of a series of N(1)-substituted derivatives of (2R,4R)-4-aminopyrrolidine-2,4-dicarboxylic acid [(2R,4R)-APDC] as constrained analogues of gamma-substituted glutamic acids is described. Appropriate substitution of the N(1)-position results in agonist, partial agonist, or antagonist activity at mGluR2, mGluR3, and/or mGluR6.
