Abstract

In this full paper, a stereocontrolled strategy for the total synthesis of (−)-vindoline is described. This synthetic route features: 1) rapid construction of the stereochemical center at C19 through a highly diastereoselective vinylogous Mannich addition; 2) tandem Heathcock/aza-Prins cyclization to install rings C and E in vindoline; 3) oxidative transformation of β-ketoester to enone; 4) stereoselective inversion of C4 stereochemistry with triphenylphosphine and carbon tetrabromide followed by Brønsted acid.
