The tylophorine alkaloid anticancer compounds antofine and cryptopleurine have been synthesized in optically active form. Both syntheses employ optically pure α-amino acids as the starting materials, require only seven steps from known 2-ethynylpyrrolidine or 2-ethynylpiperidine derivatives, and are free of protecting groups. Key steps include an alkyne hydration and a chromium carbene complex based

A concise, efficient and modular route involving Parham-type cycloacylation as the key step has been used to synthesize six enantiopure phenanthro-indolizidine alkaloids 1a-c. The preparation of enantiomericallypure tylophora alkaloids and their seco analogues on a large-scale is now feasible. The alcohol intermediates 8a-c, which are difficult to prepare by other synthetic methodologies, have been

efficient route to functionalizedindolizidines from an enantiomerically enriched γ-nitro ketone is described. The nitro ketone is obtained by an organocatalytic, enantioselective ketone-nitro alkene Michael addition. Oxidative ring expansion of the nitro ketone and subsequent methanolysis provides a 8-nitro-4-oxooctanoate. This is stereoselectively transformed to the key, functionalizedindolizidine intermediate

This paper presents the first application of two recently developed reactions to natural product synthesis. The first method involves a 6-endo-trig cyclization to prepare a versatile chiral enaminone building block. The second is a direct C-H arylation reaction. As a showcase for the utility of these methods, (+)-antofine and (+)-ipalbidine were synthesized in only 8 steps and 24-26% overall yields.
