Popis: The synthesis of new fluorinated pyrrolidones starting from unprotected amino esters and amino nitriles through a Michael addition-lactamization sequence is described. The resulting CF3-containing building blocks, bearing a quaternary stereogenic center adjacent to the fluorinated group, have been converted into amino pyrrolidines that display potent -secretase 1 (BACE1) inhibitory activity. This work constitutes an example of selective fluorination as a valid strategy for the modulation of physicochemical and biological properties of lead compounds in drug discovery.
