When the compounds of the invention contain one chiral center, the term "stereoisomer" includes both enantiomers and mixtures of enantiomers, such as the specific 50:50 mixture referred to as the racemic mixture. The compounds of the present invention may have multiple chiral centers, providing for multiple stereoisomers. This invention includes all of the stereoisomers and mixtures thereof. Unless specifically mentioned otherwise, reference to one stereoisomer applies to any of the possible stereoisomers. Whenever the stereoisomeric composition is unspecified, all possible stereoisomers are included. Where used, the structure marking "*" indicates the location of a carbon atom that is a chiral center. When bonds to a chiral carbon are depicted as straight lines, it is understood that both (R) and (S) configurations of the chiral carbon, and hence both enantiomers and mixtures thereof, are represented.
Some of the compounds described herein may exist as tautomers. The individual tautomers as well as mixtures thereof are encompassed with the described compounds.
In the compounds of generic Formula I, the atoms may exhibit their natural isotopic abundances, or one or more of the atoms may be artificially enriched in a particular isotope having the same atomic number, but an atomic mass or mass number different from the atomic mass or mass number predominantly found in nature. The present invention is meant to include all suitable isotopic variations of the compounds of generic Formula I. For example, different isotopic forms of hydrogen (H) include protium ( H) and deuterium ( H). Protium is the predominant hydrogen isotope found in nature. Enriching for deuterium may afford certain therapeutic advantages, such as increasing in vivo half-life or reducing dosage requirements, or may provide a compound useful as a standard for characterization of biological samples.
Isotopically-enriched compounds within generic Formula I can be prepared without undue experimentation by conventional techniques well known to those skilled in the art or by processes analogous to those described in the Schemes and Examples herein using appropriate isotopically-enriched reagents and/or intermediates.
As used herein except where noted, "alkyl" is intended to include both branched- and straight-chain saturated aliphatic hydrocarbon groups having the specified number of carbon atoms.

C alkyl includes n-, iso-, sec- and t-butyl, n- and isopropyl, ethyl and methyl. If no number is specified, 1-4 carbon atoms are intended for linear or branched alkyl groups. 23042 The term "alkylene" refers to any divalent linear or branched chain aliphatic hydrocarbon radical having a number of carbon atoms in the specified range. Thus, for example, "-C -C alkylene-" refers to any of the C to C linear or branched alkylenes, and "-C -C 1 6 1 6 1 4 alkylene-" refers to any of the C to C linear or branched alkylenes. A class of alkylenes of particular interest with respect to the invention is -(CH ) -, and sub-classes of particular 2 1-6 interest include -(CH ) -, -(CH ) -, -(CH ) -, and -CH -. Another sub-class of interest is 2 1-4 2 1-3 2 1-2 2 an alkylene selected from the group consisting of -CH -, -CH(CH )-, and -C(CH ) -. 2 3 3 2 Expressions such as "C -C alkylene-phenyl" and "C -C alkyl substitued with phenyl" have the 1 4 1 4 same meaning and are used interchangeably.

R is nitrogen protecting group such as – CH CH=CHR where R is, for example, hydrogen, C alkyl, e.g., -C(CH ) , aryl, and CH aryl. 2 1-6 3 3 2 M is an atom or groups that can be the counterion of the diazeniumdiolate salt, such as lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium, magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium, or ammonium 13 14 15 16 + 13 16 12 R R R R N where R -R is hydrogen or C alkyl. R is, for example, methyl, CF or 1-6 3 substituted phenyl. X is Cl or –OSO R .
Scheme 1 base R O N R HN 2 N N 11 11 1-1 1-2 23042 Scheme 1 describes a convenient method to prepare the alkali metal diazeniumdiolates of the general structure 1-2 in this invention. The allyl amine 1-1 is treated with nitric oxide at an appropriate temperature such as room temperature in the presence of a suitable base such as sodium hydroxide, sodium methoxide, sodium tert-butoxide, sodium trimethylsilanolate, or the corresponding potassium bases, in an appropriate solvent such as acetonitrile, methanol, tetrahydrofuran, N,N-dimethylformamide, or water. Examples on the preparation of the sodium diazeniumdiolates can be found from the literature (Chakrapani, H.; Showalter, B. M.; Citro, M. L.; Keefer, L. K.; Saavedra, J. E. Org. Lett. 2007, 9, 4551–4554 and WO Patent 2009/094242.

The resultant sulfonate 2-2 can be displaced by an appropriate alkali metal diazeniumdiolate salt 1-2 at an appropriate temperature such as room temperature in an appropriate solvent such as dichloromethane, dichloroethane, chloroform, acetonitrile, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, toluene, dimethoxyethane, N,N-dimethylformamide, or N-methylpyrrolidinone. The stereochemistry at the sulfonate carbon is typically inverted as a result of the displacement. The tert- butoxycarbonyl protective group can then be removed from product 2-3 with an acid such as hydrochloric acid, trifluoroacetic acid, or phosphoric acid to afford functionalized pyrrolidines 2- 4. The desired group R can be coupled to the pyrrolidine 2-4 using the appropriate method. For example, if R is an aromatic or a heteroaromatic substituent, the appropriate aromatic or heteroaromatic halide can be coupled to 2-4 with the appropriate combination of palladium source, such as palladium(II) acetate, palladium(II) chloride, tris(dibenzylideneacetone) di(palladium), with the appropriate ligand such as triphenylphosphine, tri(tert-butyl)phosphine, tricyclohexylphosphine, racemic-2,2'-bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,1'-binaphthyl, 1,1'- bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene, 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane, 1,2- bis(diphenylphosphino)propane, 2-(di-tert-butylphosphino)biphenyl, 2-dicyclohexylphosphino- 2',6'-dimethoxy-1,1'-biphenyl, or an appropriate pallacycle, such as chloro[2- (dicyclohexylphosphino)-3,6-dimethoxy-2'-4'-6'-tri-i-propyl-1,1'-biphenyl][2-(2- aminoethyl)phenyl]palladium(II). Alternatively, if R is an electron-deficient aromatic or heteroaromatic system, the coupling can be performed through nucleophilic aromatic by reacting the appropriate aromatic or heteroaromatic halide with 2-4 in the presence of an appropriate base, such as potassium carbonate, cesium carbonate, triethylamine at an elevated temperature. If R is an acyl or a sulfonyl group, the corresponding acyl halide or sulfonyl halide can be used. If R is a carbamoyl group, the corresponding isocyanate can be used. R is removed as the last step.
When R is an allyl group, the product 2-5 can be deprotected with the appropriate combination of palladium or platinum source, such as palladium(II) acetate, palladium(II) chloride, tris(dibenzylideneacetone) di(palladium), dichloro(1,5-cyclooctadiene)platinum(II), with the appropriate ligand such as triphenylphosphine, tri(tert-butyl)phosphine, tricyclohexylphosphine, racemic-2,2'-bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,1'-binaphthyl, 1,1'-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene, 1,2- bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane, 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)propane, 2-(di-tert- butylphosphino)biphenyl, 2-dicyclohexylphosphino-2',6'-dimethoxy-1,1'-biphenyl, or an appropriate pallacycle, such as chloro[2-(dicyclohexylphosphino)-3,6-dimethoxy-2'-4'-6'-tri-i- 23042 propyl-1,1'-biphenyl][2-(2-aminoethyl)phenyl]palladium(II), or a heterogeneous palladium or platinum source, such as palladium on carbon, poisoned palladium on calcium carbonate, platinum on carbon, sulfided platinum on carbon, in the presence of an appropriate scavenger, such as N,N'-dimethylbarbituric acid, dimedone, thiosalicyclic acid, or an appropriate hydrogen donor, such as hydrogen gas, formic acid, sodium borohydride, triethylsilane, tributylstannane.

The steps are similar to those outlined in scheme 2, but the order of execution of those steps is modified. R can be installed first on the pyrrolidinol, and the products 3-1 can be activated for displacement. The resultant sulfonates 3-2 can be displaced by an appropriate alkali metal diazeniumdiolate salt 1-2 to yield 3-3. R is removed as the last step. Typical conditions for executing the transformations have been described above.
