Abstract :
Total synthesis of calabar bean alkaloid (−)-physovenine (−)-3 has been achieved in a concise manner starting from optically active (−)-3a-hydroxyfuroindoline (−)-2, synthesized via modified Sharpless epoxidation of tryptophol 1. Our strategy involved a stereospecific radical substitution reaction and regioselective oxidation at the C5 position.
