✦ Synopsis
The total synthesis of3 the %z&no~ indole alkaloid tubifoline and detailed H-and C-NMR data of thisalkaloid are reported.
Tubifoline is a pentacyclic
Stigchao~ indole alkaloid, 1 having the Strychnan skel-eta1 type, whose isolation and structural elucidation were reported by Schmid in 1964. 2 Its most characteristic structural features are the presence of an indolenine unit and the absence of the C-173 atom that is present in the greater part of S.tnychnon alkaloids. In 1968 Harley-Mason reported4 the first total synthesis of (+I-tubifoline according to a strategy that involves, as the final, key step, the simultaneous formation of C and E rings (C3-C7 bond formed1 by transannular oxidative cyclization of a stemmadenine-type system. Although two formal 5 and a total 6 syntheses of (+)-tubifoline have been reported since that time, all of them converge to intermediates used by Harley-Mason.

Two different strategies for the synthesis of pentacyclic Strychnos alkaloids in enantiomerically pure form are explored. Both of them involve the use of enantiopure 2-(4-piperidylmethyl)indoles prepared by kinetic resolution of l-(3-pyridyl)ethanol, followed by partial reduction of the pyridine rin
