Oops it's the other way around.

If it's rewriting all the URIs so that they have a trailing slash then
try this:

1. At the http level:

map $request_uri $no_trailing_slash {
  default  0;
  ~.*[^/]$ 1;
} 

2. At the server level (vhost):

server {
    listen       80;
    server_name  a.com;


    location / {
        if ($no_trailing_slash) {
            return 302 $request_uri/; 
        }

        proxy_pass         http://10.0.0.2:8001;
        proxy_redirect     off;
        server_name_in_redirect off;
    }
}
