β¦ Synopsis
Degradation of (->a-narcotine (5). (-)-p-narcotine (6), and (-tP-hydrastine (7) with ethyl chloroformate (ECF) affords the chloro-urethans 9 and 18, respectively. Diastereomer 9-1 is easily hydrolyzed to the hydroxy-urethan 10, whilst 18 is converted to the methoxy-analogue 19. The stilbene lactone 11 is obtained from 9-1 by treatment with DBU, the analogous stilbene 17 arises already when 7 is reacted with ECF. -Hydroxy-urethan 10a phenylogous a d o 1is split by OHto aldehyde l3 and to meconine (14). LiAlqreduction of 10 yields the stereochemically homogenous trio1 IS, which is cyclized to diastereomers of the 3-phenyl-isochroman 16 under acidic conditions.
