A general approach (oxyanion-Cope strategy) for the synthesis of sarpagine/ajmaline indole alkaloids has been developed. (+)-Ajmaline 1 and alkaloid G 2 as well as norsuaveoline 3 have been synthesized from D-(+)-tryptophan in enantiospecific fashion via

Norsuaveoline la has been synthesized enantiospecifically in 28% overall yield from commercially available D-(+)-tryptophan methyl ester via the asymmetric Pictet-Spengler reaction and a stereocontrolled oxy-anion Cope rearrangement as key steps.
