Abstract
An enantioselective synthesis of (–)-cis-2-aminomethylcyclopropanecarboxylic acid [(–)-CAMP] has been achieved in 2.5% total yield over ten steps starting from 2-furaldehyde. The synthesis features diastereoselective cyclopropane formation via diazene, followed by oxime formation and the reduction, for construction of the γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) motif.

The reaction mixture was then concentrated under reduced pressure and subjected to ion-exchange chromatography (Dowex 1-X8, 1.0 × 5 cm, H2O) to give (–)-CAMP hydrochloride (8.2 mg, 100%) as a colorless solid; [α]D 20.3 –35.9 (c = 0.50, H2O).
