Abstract
We report a model study towards the enantioselective synthesis of the dibenzopyrrocoline alkaloid (-)-cryptowolinol. The key step involves a challenging enantioselective Pd0-catalyzed C(sp3)-H arylation performed with a chiral NHC ligand, which proceeds via parallel kinetic resolution (PKR). A very efficient PKR process was achieved on a deoxygenated model substrate and was successfully transposed to a potential intermediate en route to (-)-cryptowolinol.
