Popis: Reaction of acyl chlorides or acid anhydrides with isomeric 2:3 adducts derived from condensation of l -serine ( 1a ), l -threonine ( 1b ) and l -cysteine ( 1c ) methyl esters with formaldehyde afforded N-acyl-pseudoprolines 7–19 in various yields. These 2:3 adducts can be considered as synthetic equivalents of oxaproline and thiaproline moieties. The present work revealed the versatile behaviour of the two 2:3 adducts as a consequence of the ring-chain tautomerism occurring in the five- and/or seven-membered rings.
