Reaction of the N-acyliminium ion precursor 1a (derived from S-proline via anodic methoxylation) with RCu in the presence of BF3·Et2O gives preferentially the trans adducts 2 (trans:cis ≥96:4). Using such a procedure, a general synthetic route to (2R, 5R)-trans-2,5-dialkylpyrrolidines has been developed, as exemplified by the chirospecific syntheses of the ant feromones trans 5-butyl-2-heptylpyrrolidine (10a), trans-5-ethyl-2-heptylpyrrolidine (10b) and trans-5-heptyl-2-(5-hexenyl)pyrrolidine (10c).

A potent sigma (σ) receptor ligand was isolated from the culture broth of Streptomyces longispororuber 525. The active compound was identified to be (2R-trans)-2-butyl-5-heptylpyrrolidine by spectroscopic and chemical studies. The compound exhibited high affinity and selectivity for σ receptors. The IC50 values toward σ1, σ2 and dopamine D2 receptors were 2.0, 22.7 and more than 40,000 nM, respectively. Its (2S-trans)- and (±)-cis-isomers, both synthesized, were also found to be high affinity σ ligands.
