Asymmetric dihydroxylation of (E)-ethyl 2-isopropylbut-2-enoate with AD-mix-a and AD-mix-P, followed by saponification, gives (-)- and (+)-trachelanthic acids, respectively, which are each coupled via their acetonides with (+)-retronecine to yield the pyrrolizidine alkaloids indicine and intermedine.

(-)- and (+)-trachelanthic and (-)- and (+)-viridifloric acids were synthesized and their isopropylidene derivatives were regiospecifically coupled, at C-9, with (-)-retronecine (2) obtained by hydrolysis of monocrotaline (1), isolated from Crotalaria spectabilis. Hydrolysis, followed by oxidation, led to the N-oxides of indicine (7), intermedine (13), lycopsamine (15), and the new nonnatural product 16, respectively. Each of these analogues was screened in the P388 lymphocytic leukemia system at the same time as indicine N-oxide, and the results were compared. Other related analogues were prepared and similarly screened and the results compared with those from indicine N-oxide.
