Abstract
A novel synthesis of (+/-)-desoxyeseroline, from the crucial oxindole (15), obtained by a 3,3-sigmatropic rearrangement of the enolate derived from th e hydroxamic acid derivative (5) followed by radical desulfurisation, has b een described. The requisite C2N fragment has been introduced through a Mic hael addition of nitroethylene to 15.
