Abstract
[GRAPHICS] Straightforward total syntheses of (-)-rosmarinecine have been achieved fro m L-malic acid derived pyrroline N-oxides by two novel useful cascade proce sses, which join the family of domino reactions. Both strategies, which fur nished the target alkaloid in enantioenriched and enantiopure forms, respec tively, allow complete control of configuration at all the three newly crea ted contiguous stereogenic centers.
