Abstract

A total synthesis of camptothecin has been carried out. Central to our synthesis is the intramolecular condensation of a suitably designed ketol, which in turn was obtained from a tricyclic ABC ring synthon. A tandem reductive amination and Michael addition sequence on an unsaturated quinoline ester was employed for the assembly of the ABC skeleton.
