The firstenantioselectivesynthesis of the recently reported ant alkaloid 1 has been achieved starting from commercially available lactam 3 in seven steps and 25% overall yield. The proposed structure of the natural product was confirmed by comparison with synthetic 1 and its absolute configuration established as 3S,5R,8S,9S.

The first chiral synthesis of new hydroxyindolizidine alkaloid (1) detected in the ant Myrmicaria melanogaster has been achieved, and its absolute stereochemistry was determined to be 3S, 5R, 8S, 9S by the present chiral synthesis.
