Abstract

A synthetic approach to a functionalized ABC-tricyclic framework of calyciphilline A-type alkaloids, a building block toward this class of alkaloids, is reported. The key synthetic steps involve a radical cyclization to form the hydroindole system and piperidine ring closure through a stereocontrolled aldol cyclization. The resulting alcohol allows the methyl group to be installed in the bowl-shaped azatricyclic structure; this crucial reaction takes place with configuration retention. The synthesis of azatricyclic compound I constitutes a formal synthesis of himalensine A.
