The concise total syntheses of the alkaloids (±)-crinine (1) and (±)-buphanisine (2) have been completed by a strategy that features the application of a general procedure for the elaboration of a quaternary carbon at a carbonyl center for construction of the key intermediate 4,4-disubstituted cyclohexenone 7.
Cyclizations of a bicyclic amine via an intramolecular Heck reaction followed by an oxidation reaction generated a tetracyclic spirocyclohexadione. From this useful intermediate, different crinine alkaloids such as crinine, buphanisine, flexinine, and augustine could be synthesized. Dienol/benzene or dienone/phenol rearrangement of this tetracyclic spirodienone afforded apogalanthamine analogs.
