Banwell, Martin G.,Kokas, Okanya J.,Willis, Anthony C.
, p. 3503 - 3506 (2008/02/12)
The readily available and enzymatically derived cis-1,2-dihydrocatechols 3a and 3b have been elaborated over 17 steps, including a novel radical addition/elimination sequence, into the enantiomer, (+)-1, of the montanine alkaloid brunsvigine [(-)-1].
Chemoenzymatic approaches to lycorine-type amaryllidaceae alkaloids: Total syntheses of enf-lycoricidine, 3-epi-ent-lycoricidine, and 4-deoxy-3-epi-ent- lycoricidine
Matveenko, Maria,Kokas, Okanya J.,Banwell, Martin G.,Willis, Anthony C.
, p. 3683 - 3685 (2008/02/13)
The readily available and enzymatically derived cis-1,2-dihydrocatechol 4 has been elaborated, over 11 steps including an Overman rearrangement, into the non-natural enantiomer, (-)-1, of the alkaloid lycoricidine [(+)-1]. Related chemistries have provided analogues 18, 19, and 26.
