Reaction of (S)- or (R)-3-aminoquinuclidine with 2-chloropyrimidine or 2-bromopyrimidine led to an unexpected formation of both cis- and trans-octahydropyrrolo [2,3]pyridine derivatives. A single-step synthesis of two of the four stereoisomers of these octahydropyrrolo[2,3]pyridine derivatives provides a convenient way of generating stereochemically defined isomers. Optimization of reaction conditions was carried out by (1)H NMR monitoring.

Small molecule agonists and antagonists of the V(2)-vasopressin receptor have been discovered and have undergone clinical trials. In conjunction with these discovery programs, the synthesis and biological testing of various metabolites associated with these clinical targets were actively pursued. We now report the results of our synthetic efforts and the corresponding biological data generated for several of the metabolites of WAY-151932 and CL-347985 (Lixivaptan).
