Title: Structure elucidation via stereoselective synthesis of the acetate center of 1-Azabicyclo[2.2.2]oct-3-yl {alpha}-hydroxy-{alpha}(1-iodo-1-propen-3-yl)-{alpha}-phenylacetate (IQNP). A high affinity muscarinic imaging agent for SPECT

A facile stereoselective synthesis of {alpha}-hydroxy-{alpha}-phenyl-{alpha}-(1-propyn-3-yl)acetic acid in high enantiomeric excess has been developed and allows determination of the (R/S) conformation at this center. In addition, comparison of the specific rotation, HPLC, and NMR data of (E)-(R,R)-and (E)-(R,S)-IQNP to those prepared by a classical resolution of the acetate moiety allows the assignment of (E)-(R,R)-IQNP as the isomer demonstrating binding to the M{sub 1} mAChR subtype and (Z)-(R,R)-IQNP as the isomer binding to both the M{sub 1} and M{sub 2} mAChR subtypes.
