To provide a method for simply and economically preparing (1R,4S)-1- amino-4-(hydroxymethyl)-2-cyclopentene by converting an amino alcohol obtained by reducing 2-azabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-en-3-one to a corresponding acyl derivative.
A racemic body or an optically active body of 2- azabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-en-3-one is subjected to a reduction treatment by using a metal hydride compound such as metal borohydride in an organic solvent at -20 to 200°C to provide an aminoalcohol of the formula. The obtained aminoalcolol is converted to a correspondign D- or L-tartaric acid salt, and the obtained salt is reacted with N-(2-amino-4,6-dichloropyrimidin-5-yl) formaldehyde to provide the objective (1R,4S)-4-[(2-amino-6-chloro-5-formatido-4-pyrimidyl) amino]-2-cyclopentenyl-1-methanol in the method for producing the amino alcohol derivative.
