Abstract
[GRAPHICS] The formal synthesis of the alkaloid (+/-)-dendrobine (4) was accomplished using the IMDAF cycloaddition/rearrangement sequence of a furanyl carbamate . Conversion of the rearranged cycloadduct to Kende's advanced intermediate in eight steps completed the formal synthesis of ((+/-)-dendrobine.
