PROCESS AND INTERMEDIATES FOR THE PREPARATION OF PYRROLIDINE CARBOXYLIC ACIDS

摘要

A novel process is provided for the preparation of pyrrolidine carboxylic acids, and the useful intermediates obtained therein. These compounds are intermediates for the synthesis of melanocortin-4 receptor (MC-4R), which are useful for the treatment of disorders such as obesity, diabetes, male sexual dysfunction, and female sexual dysfunction.
