✦ Synopsis


Key steps in this approach to umaryllidaceae alkaloids containing oxidation at the R-position of the pyrroline ring are (a) copper(H)-promoted rearrangement of aminocyclopentanol 11 to afford the 3-silylhydroindole 12, and (b) oxidation of 12 by the general procedures of Kumada and Fleming to give the cis-3a-aryl-3-hydroxyhexahydroindolone 13 in 71% overall yield from
