A mew method for alkaloid synthesis is described.The rhodium(II)-acetate-catalyzed decomposition of 3-(4-acetoxyphenyl)-1-diazo-4-(pyrrol-1-yl)-2-butanone (5d) gave 6-(4-acetoxyphenyl)-5,6-dihydro-7(8H)-indolizinone (6d) in 82percent yield via an intramolecular carbenoid reaction.The latter compound was converted in four steps in 13percent overall yield to (+/-)-ipalbidine (1b).

Rhodium(II) acetate-catalyzed decomposition of 1-diazo-3-phenyl-4-(pyrrol-1-yl)-butan-2-one and its p-methoxy derivative resulted in their intramolecular cyclization to form the 6-phenyl-5,6-dihydroindolizin-7(8H)-ones and 1-(pyrrol-1-yl)methylindan-3-ones as major and minor products respectively in high yields (77-89percent).The p-nitrophenyldiazo compound cyclized exclusively to the 5,6-dihydroindolizin-7(8H)-one in 76percent yield.
