ChemInform Abstract: Stereoselective Synthesis of Quinolizidine Alkaloids: (-)-Lasubin II.

subject

description

Initially, lasubin II was synthesized diastereoselectively in racemic form [3]. Asymmetric syntheses of lasubin II were achieved based on stereoselective transformations of enantiomerically pure substrates [4] or, for example, via a diastereoselective aza-Diels-Alder reaction using a resolved chiral arylaldehyde tricarbonylchromium complex [5]. Recently, an enantioselectively catalyzed aza-Diels-Alder reaction [6] and a [2+2+2] cycloaddition reaction [7] were successfully used for the synthesis of enantiomerically pure lasubin II.
