A first asymmetric synthesis of the lycorine-type Amaryllidaceae alkaloid (−)-δ-lycorane by using a chiral bifunctional squaramide-catalysed cascade reaction as a powerful tool to construct the skeleton of the alkaloid on the basis of unsaturated β-ketoester and nitroalkene is reported. The sequence afforded a highly functionalized intermediate with three stereogenic centres with high diastereoselectivity (>20 : 1 dr) and high enantioselectivity (92% ee) in one step, which was converted into (−)-δ-lycorane in eight steps.
The residue was purified by flash silica 8 Please do not adjust margins Please do not adjust margins Please do not adjust margins gel chromatography (DCM/MeOH = 10/1) to give (−)-δ-lycorane (9 mg, 72%) as a white solid.
