Abstract

A reaction sequence, involving the addition of (substituted) propargylsilanes to lactam- derived N-acyliminium ions followed by gold-catalyzed cyclization of the resulting α-allenyl amide, is applied in expedient syntheses of pyrrolizidine alkaloids heliotridine and ent- retronecine in five steps from (S)-malic acid.
