A. Arnone et al., Intramolecular cycloadditions of nitrones derived from 1-allyl-2-pyrrolecarbaldehyde as a route to racemic and enantiopure pyrrolizidines and indolizidines, J ORG CHEM, 63(25), 1998, pp. 9279-9284
A version of the intramolecular nitrone cycloaddition strategy, using 2-pyr
rolecarbaldehyde as starting material, has been developed to synthesize new
pyrrolizidines and indolizidines structurally related to biologically acti
ve alkaloids. The target molecules have been accessible in racemic as well
as enantiopure form.
