Abstract: | The first total synthesis of (-)-himgaline and a highly enantioselective synthesis of its congener (-)-GB 13 are described. Decarboxylative aza-Michael reaction of the hexacyclic lactone precursor under acidic conditions, followed by basic workup, yielded (-)-GB 13 in 80% yield. Cyclization of (-)-GB 13 to oxohimgaline under acidic conditions, followed by internally coordinated sodium triacetoxyborohydride reduction, gave (-)-himgaline as the exclusive product. |
