Abstract
A unified route for the total synthesis of three tetracyclic diquinane Lycopodium alkaloids (+)-paniculatine, (-)-magellanine, and (+)-magellaninone has been accomplished in 13-14 overall steps based on late-stage diverse transformations from an advanced tetracyclic common intermediate. In the established synthesis, quick formation of the two five-membered rings was efficiently achieved by an intramolecular reductive coupling of ketone-carbonyl and ester-carbonyl and an organocatalytic intramolecular Michael addition of aldehyde-derived enamine to an internal enone functionality with satisfactory redox and step economies and excellent stereoselectivities, providing the requisite tricyclic carbo-framework possessing multiple dense stereogenic centers, and an intramolecular reductive amination finally furnished the essential piperidine ring.
