✦ Synopsis


Total Synthesis of (-)-Strychnine via the Wieland-Gumlich Aldehyde. -A novel synthesis of optically pure (-)-strychnine (XI) is presented involving the easy generation of enantiopure octahydroindolone (III), the palladium-catalyzed piperidine ring closure with stereoselective incorporation of the E-hydroxyethylidene group into compound (V), and indoline ring closure by reductive cyclization of the α-(2-nitrophenyl) ketone moiety in compound (VII).
