The enantioselective synthesis of Kerr's intermediate, anadvanced synthetic precursor of the alkaloids of the leuconolam-leuconoxine-mersicarpine group, is reported from one of these aminopentanols14 p.application/pdfengcc-by-nc-nd (c) Elsevier B.V., 2020http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/esLactamesAlcaloidesLactamsAlkaloidsGeneration of acyclic chiral building blocks containing a quaternary stereocenter.
