A facile asymmetric total synthesis of (+)-aspidospermidine has been developed, which is accomplished in 11 steps in an overall yield of 9.6%. Key steps involve a palladium-catalyzed enantioselective decarboxylative allylation to install the quaternary ca

Evolution of the synthetic strategy that culminated in the first asymmetric total synthesis of the Aspidosperma alkaloid limaspermidine is described. The successful enantioselective route to (-)-limaspermidine proceeds in 10 steps and with the isolation of only six intermediates using a Pd-catalyzed enantioselective decarboxylative allylation we have recently developed. This first enantioselective synthesis of (-)-limaspermidine establishes unambiguously its absolute configuration and allows the first asymmetric formal total synthesis of the Aspidoalbine alkaloid (-)-1-acetylaspidoalbidine.

Two strategies for the assembly of homochiral carbazolones have been investigated. The first exploited desymmetrisation of 1,3-cyclohexadione derivatives however this failed to deliver satisfactory outcomes. An orthogonal route exploiting palladium catalysed decarboxylative allylation of racemic carbazolone β-ketoesters has been developed. Herein we report full details on the development of this reaction and clarify apparent discrepancies between our preliminary reports and those of Shao.
