Abstract
Compound 11, a common intermediate in several syntheses of (+/-)-gamma -lycorane, was prepared, from commercially available N-triisopropylsil yl pyrrole, in 13 steps and overall 34% yield. The key step of the syn thesis involved the diastereoselective hydrogenation of a substituted pyrrole ring.
