Abstract
Oxidation of palmatine ( 1 ) choride with m -chloroperbenzoic acid in methylene chloride in the presence of sodium bicarbonate at near −78° C yields polycarpine ( 2 ). A new biogenetic route to the aporphines is proposed which does not involve phenolic oxidative coupling, and proceeds through the intermediacy of protoberberinium salts.
