Abstract

Anellated 1-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonanes 6 were synthesized by several routes starting from natural α-amino esters 2 and ohaloaryl- or o-bromohetarylmethyl bromides 1. N-Alkylation of the starting amino esters to 5 and 3 was followed by halogen/lithium exchange and double cyclization. The cyclization products 6 exhibit interesting inhibition of RNase H and DNA-polymerase activity of reverse transcriptase (RT) of HIV-1 at concentrations where human cellular DNA polymerases are not affected.
