The distinctive nucleus of kainoid amino acids, (2S,3R)-(1)-2-carboxypyrrolidine-3-acetic acid 6, was synthesized by a chemoenzymatic process, exploiting the diastereomeric cis/trans methyl pyroglutamate derivatives 10a–c/11a–c as key intermediates. These mixtures,when subjected to a kinetic resolution mediated by a-chymotrypsin, reacted diastereo-, regio-,and enantioselectively to give the trans derivatives (1)-10a–c possessing the correct (2S,3R) configuration.Subsequently, the desired product (2S,3R)-(1)-6 could be obtained after well-establishedtransformations.

Abstract
The distinctive nucleus of kainoid amino acids, (2S,3R)-(1)-2-carboxypyrrolidine-3-acetic acid 6, was synthesized by a chemoenzymatic process, exploiting the diastereomeric cis/trans methyl pyroglutamate derivatives 10a–c/11a–c as key intermediates. These mixtures,when subjected to a kinetic resolution mediated by a-chymotrypsin, reacted diastereo-, regio-,and enantioselectively to give the trans derivatives (1)-10a–c possessing the correct (2S,3R) configuration.Subsequently, the desired product (2S,3R)-(1)-6 could be obtained after well-establishedtransformations.
