Abstract

Lactams of 1-amino-3-carboxylic acid cyclic compounds are provided in enantiomeric form, together with an enantiomer of the corresponding ring-opened amino-acid or ester, by reaction of the racemic lactam with a novel lactamase. The products are useful in the synthesis of chiral carbocyclic nucleotides. The enantiomer is preferably 2-azabicyclo2.2.1!hept-5-en-3-one.
