Abstract

A concise synthesis of the ACDE tetracyclic ring system of calyciphylline A-type alkaloids was investigated. The intramolecular Diels–Alder reaction of a tetrasubstituted olefin with furan enabled the construction of the ACD ring system bearing two contiguous quaternary carbons in one step, and subsequent intramolecular [3+2] cycloaddition successfully gave the E ring.
