The tricyclic skeleton of the gephyrotoxin amphibian alkaloids was synthesized via an enantioselective serial sequence involving nine discrete steps that furnished Kishi's intermediate 5 in 22% overall yield. This efficient and expeditious synthetic approach exploits the inherent stereochemistry of a (1R)-2-tropinone derivative for the construction of the core cis-2,5-disubstituted pyrrolidine ring system and constitutes a formal synthesis of gephyrotoxin 287C.
