O-Trimethylsilyl (TMS)-protected diphenylprolinol-catalyzed Michael addition of a functionalized alkylidene malonate and n-butanal affords an aldehyde. This adduct can serve as the common intermediate for the assembly of secologanin tryptamine and dopamin

Both enantiomers of the menthyl half-esters (10) and (23) of ethylmalonic acid were converted into (+)-(4S,5R)-4-(2-benzyloxyethyl)-5-ethyl-3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-2-pyrone (18).A mixture of the trans-(18) and cis-lactones (19) in a ratio of ca. 4:1 was prepared by way of radical cyclisation of the (E)-α,β-unsaturated esters (16), while the former (18) was synthesised with high stereoselection by the cyclisation of the (Z)-esters (26).The lactone (18) was enantioselectively transformed into (-)-protoemetinol (5) and (-)-protoemetine (4), correlated to (-)-emetine (1) and (-)-tubulosine (3).

Enantiomerically pure (-)-protoemetinol (1) was selectively synthesized from ethylmalonic acid via radical cyclization of the (Z)-α,β-unsaturated ester (12).
