Abstract

trans-4-Cyclohexyl-(S)-proline, 1 is a crucial intermediate in the synthesis of Fosinopril 2 - prodrug used in the treatment of hypertension and acute or chronic congestive heart failure.

In a patent literature [1-3] three methods of synthesis of 1 are described, all of them are multistep process, requiring strictly anhydrous conditions, low temperature and tedious separation procedures.

We proposed and elaborated and original scheme of synthesis or 1, based on available cyclohexane carboaldehyde and ethyl 2-oxopropanoate [4].
