meso-Anhydrides derived from norbornanes and norbornenes, undergo an asymmetric ring opening upon treatment with (S)-proline derivatives, to give amido acids with moderate to excellent enantiomeric excesses. A cyclopropane derived anhydride was also desymmetrised in this way, whilst cyclohexyl derived anhydrides gave a 1:1 mixture of diastereomers. The origin of the desymmetrisation is explained by a model based on steric interactions in the transition state.
