Procedure

3-Azabicyclo(3.1.0)hexane, a precursor for preparing 3-azabicyclo(3.1.0)hexane-2-carboxylic acid, a plant gametocide, is prepared by (a) treating cis-1,2-cyclopropanedicarboxylic acid with benzylamine, to form 3-(benzyl)-3-azabicyclo(3.1.0)hexane-2,4-dione, (b) selectively reducing the dione to 3-(benzyl)-3-azabicyclo(3.1.0)hexane, and (c) hydrogenolysis of that compound to 3-azabicyclo(3.1.0)hexane.
