Abstract
The rearrangement product obtained by treatment of the norditerpenoid alkaloid deltaline (1) with SOCl2 in moist benzene had been assigned s tructure 5. This compound was also obtained by treatment of 10-chloro- 10-deoxydeltaline (4) with aqueous MeOH. However, when (4) was treated with methanolic KOH, a novel rearranged pyrrolidine (8) was obtained. Structures 5 and 8 for these heterolytic fragmentation products were established by nmr spectroscopic data and an X-ray crystal structure d etermination of 8.
