Abstract Lycoctonine has been acylated to afford sequentially inuline, delsemine analogues and methyllycaconitine using isatoic anhydride followed by S-(−)-methylsuccinic anhydride. This protocol is a rapid, facile method for the regiospecific introduction of the anthranilate ester moiety found in potent nicotinic acetylcholine receptor antagonists.
