Abstract

A new strategy for the synthesis of pentacyclic Strychnos alkaloids has been developed. It consists in the closure of the five-membered E ring by cyclization upon the indole 3-position from a suitably N-substituted tetracyclic system embodying rings ABCD of the alkaloids. Attempts to effect the key cyclization either by Pummerer rearrangement of sulfiiylacetamides 4 and 6, from chloroacetamide 12, or from bis (methy1thio) acetamide ...
