N2 - Asymmetric cyclopropanation of styrenes by tert-butyl diazoacetate followed by ester hydrolysis and Curtius rearrangement gave a series of tranylcypromine analogues as single enantiomers. The o,- m- and p-bromo analogues were all more active than tranylcypromine in a LSD1 enzyme assay. The m- and p-bromo analogues were micromolar growth inhibitors of the LNCaP prostate cancer cell line as were the corresponding biphenyl analogues prepared from the bromide by Suzuki crosscoupling.
