All the stereoisomers of 2-(2-carboxy-3,3-difluorocyclopropyl)glycines (F2CCGs) were synthesized in enantiomerically pure forms using (R)-2,3-O-isopropyl-ideneglyceraldehyde as a chiral precursor. L-F2CCG-I, one of the stereoisomers corresponding to an extended form of L-glutamate was found to be a potent agonist for metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs).
