Abstract

Abstract A simple methodology utilizing mucochloric acid anddifferent α-and β-amino acid esters, amides and shortpeptides for the synthesis of novel γ-lactam and γ-lactam-based short peptides was developed. The synthesis of an antiseizure agent, Levetiracetam (Keppra®) was demonstrated.(© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2006)
