Abstract

A synthetic equivalent of the Nazarov reagent, the silyl derivative 2, able to undergo base- catalyzed double Michael addition reactions with α, β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds has been developed. The new reagent satisfactorily reacts with unsaturated indolo [2, 3-a] quinolizidine lactams to give pentacyclic yohimbinone-type derivatives.
