Abstract
Asymmetric intramolecular Heck cyclization of endocyclic enamides occurs at room temperature to give indoloizidine and azaazulene ring systems in up t o 86% enantiomeric excess. A synthesis of (+)-epiindolizidine 167B and form al synthesis of 5E,9Z-indolizidine 223AB is described. (C) 2001 Elsevier Sc ience Ltd. All rights reserved.
