Abstract
The enantiomerically pure indolizidine (-)-21 has been synthesized starting from L-malic acid. The key intermediate 20 has been assembled through an intramolecular 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of a nitrone generated in situ by retrocycloaddition from isoxazolidine 17 or 18. The configuration of the new three stereocenters was set up with complete control in the cycloaddition step. The presented synthetic route provides a general and highly selective methodology toward indolizidines having the [1,8a]-cis configuration.I documenti in FLORE sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
