syntheses of cernuane-type and quinolizidine-type Lycopodium alkaloids are described. A commonintermediate5 for the two types of alkaloids was assembled practically from (+)-citronellal via organocatalytic α-amination, followed by the construction of oxazolidinone that was used for diastereoselective allylation. Key compound 5 was converted into cermizine C (3), and this in turn was converted into senepodine
