Abstract
A synthesis of cardiopetaline has been accomplished via a Wagner-Meerwein rearrangement of a diol having the denudatine skeleton. The Wagner-Meerwein rearrangement could be facilitated simply by heating the diol with p-toluenesulfonic acid in pivalic acid, without preactivating the pivotal hydroxy group. This strategy does not require differentiation of several hydroxy groups in the substrate for the Wagner-Meerwein rearrangement and could be applied to the synthesis of more highly oxygenated aconitine-type diterpenoid alkaloids.
