Pj. Parsons et al., THE FACILE CONSTRUCTION OF INDOLE ALKALOID MODELS - A TANDEM CASCADE APPROACH FOR THE SYNTHESIS OF A MODEL FOR PSEUDOCOPSININE, Tetrahedron, 52(2), 1996, pp. 647-660
A short and concise route to the pseudocopsinine skeleton is reported
which relies on a tandem radical cascade to furnish five fused rings i
n one step.
