Abstract
The asymmetric formal synthesis of schulzeines A and C is described. Key features of the synthesis include the efficient and stereoselective construction of the benzoquinolizidine skeleton via the aza-Claisen rearrangement-induced ring expansion of the 1-vinyl-N-glycyl-isoquinoline, which was prepared by the highly enantioselective asymmetric allylation of the 8-benzyloxy-substituted dihydroisoquinoline and by the acid-catalyzed transannulation of the resulting 10-membered lactam.
