A concise and very efficient route to enantiopure tetrahydrofuran-fused indolizidinols, which could be considered as protected new indolizidindiols, is described in two-steps sequence starting from the known furoindolizidindiones. The key-step of these transformations was the formation, in one operation, of THF indolizidinols containing a lactam function by simultaneous highly diastereoseleclive catalytic hydrogenation of the carbonyl function and the furan ring. During these investigations, numerous catalysts in different combinations were tested and the impact of substrates on the reduction profile is discussed. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
