Abstract: This work describes a new process for the asymmetric synthesis of (1R,2S)-1-amino-2-vinylcyclopropanecarboxylic acid of high pharmaceutical importance The sequence of the reactions includes PTC alkylation (SN2), homogeneous SN2′ cyclization followed by disassembly of the resultant Ni(II) complex All reactions are conducted under operationally convenient conditions and suitably scaled up to 6 g of the starting Ni(II) complex
