Abstract
The total synthesis of 5-(2′-hydroxyethyl) indolizidine via 5-thioindolizidinone is described. The key step is the transformation of 5-thioindolizidinone via Eschenmoser's sulfide contraction. The racemic mixture of 5R, 9R-and 5S, 9S-5-(2′-hydroxyethyl) indolizidine was obtained in seven steps in 17% overall yield from 2-allyl cyclopentanone.
