Abstract
The protected 11 amino acid segment (6–16) of the peptaibol zervamicin II‐2 was synthesized by using the ‘azirine/oxazolone method’ for the introduction of all Aib residues. Whereas a 2,2‐dimethyl‐2__H__‐azirin‐3‐amine was used as the building block for Aib(7), methyl 2,2‐dimethyl‐2__H__‐azirine‐3‐prolinate and ‐3‐(3‐hydroxyprolinate) proved to be ideally suited as dipeptide synthons for the introduction of Aib‐Pro and Aib‐Hyp, respectively. The coupling of Z‐protected amino acids or peptide acids with the 2__H__‐azirin‐3‐amines were performed in 75% to quantitative yield.

A highly functionalized perhydroindole is formed by the intramolecular [π4s+π2s] cycloaddition of a 2-azaallyl anion with a vinyl sulfide [Eq. (a)]. This is the key step in the total synthesis of (+)-coccinine, the enantiomer of the Amaryllidaceae alkaloid (-)-coccinine.
