Abstract
Abstract: The overall strategy for the synthesis of vinblastine (1) is based upon the nonoxidative cleavage of the tertiary amine (+)-18 to generate the intermediate delocalized cation Ma, which in the presence of an electron-rich aromatic nucleophile can be trapped at C-18'to give the bisalkaloid analogues 19, 20, and 21. To ascertain the effect on (2- 18'stereochemistry with respect to C-2'and C-4'stereochemistry, we have made a number ...
