Significance

Securinega alkaloids, which are isolated from Euphorbiaceae plants, display antimalarial, antifungal, antibiotic and GABA receptor antagonist activities. This synthesis of allosecuri­nine features a diastereoselective Yβ-catalyzed perhydropyrroloisoxazolidine formation followed by reductive N-O bond cleavage to give 2,5-cis-pyrrolidines.
