Abstract
Starting from (±)-3-acetoxyglutarimide, diastereoselective formal synthesis of indole alkaloids (±)-eburnamonine, (±)-eburnaminol, and (±)-vindeburnol have been demonstrated via a common intermediate (±)-1-hydroxy-12-tosyl-2,3,6,7,12,12b-hexahydroindolo[2,3-a]quinolizin-4(1H)-one in very good overall yields. The acetoxy group from (±)-3-acetoxyglutarimide was first used to induce the diastereoselectivity and also as a latent source of ketone carbonyl group. The stereoselective eliminations, reductions, and intramolecular cyclizations were the involved key steps.
