Methylenomycin A methyl ester (II) was synthesized from methylenomycin (I) in a high yield, and reaction of the resulting ester with several amines as a nucleophile afforded the adducts of 2-substituted 5, 6-epoxy-5, 6-dimethylperhydrocyclopenta [c] pyrrole-1, 4-diones (IIIa-VIIa) or s-substituted 2, 3-epoxy-2, 3-dimethyl-4-oxocyclopentane-1-carboxylates (VIIIa, IXa).
