Article Title: Asymmetric synthetic access to the hetisine alkaloids: Total synthesis of (+)-nominine
Abstract: A dual cycloaddition strategy for the synthesis of the hetisine alkaloids has been developed, illustrated by a concise asymmetric total synthesis of (+)-nominine (7). The approach relies on an early-stage intramolecular 1,3-dipolar cyclo-addition of a 4-oxido-isoquinolinium betaine dipole with an ene-nitrile dipolarophile. Subsequent late-stage pyrrolidine-induced dienamine isomerization/Diels-Alder cascade allows for rapid construction of the carbon-nitrogen polycyclic skeleton within this class of C20- diterpenoid alkaloids. © 2008 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
