The synthesis of a discovery library of 80 3,4-dehydroproline amides was achieved in a four-step reaction sequence from easily accessible 3-aminoallene-3-carboxylate methyl esters. Diversification of these proline mimics was introduced at five different sites: the substituents at the 3-pyrroline unit (R-1, R-2, R-3), at the nitrogen (R-4), and the C-terminus (R-5). The 3-pyrroline scaffold was synthesized in excellent yields by a silver-catalyzed intramolecular cyclization of aminoallenes, followed by N-functionalization reactions. Maximum diversity was introduced in the final step of the reaction sequence by taking advantage of the carboxylic acid handle of the 3-pyrroline subunit. Amide coupling reactions using polystyrene-carbodiimide (PS-carbodiimide) and 1-hydroxybenzotriazole (HOBt) under microwave irradiation led to 3,4-dehydroproline amides that were obtained in purities greater than 85% by LC/MS/ESLD after scavenging the excess HOBt on a silica-bound carbonate SPE cartridge.
