A New Cationic Domino Process to (±)-Uleine

An amazing sequence of reactions is triggered when 1 is treated with formic acid. The formation of a benzyl cation sets off a domino reaction that ends with (±)‐uleine (2), which thus allows a simple and stereoselective synthesis of this and possibly also other natural products from the group of str...

Zusammenfassung:An amazing sequence of reactions is triggered when 1 is treated with formic acid. The formation of a benzyl cation sets off a domino reaction that ends with (±)‐uleine (2), which thus allows a simple and stereoselective synthesis of this and possibly also other natural products from the group of strychnos alkaloids.
