Key words

(±)-meloscine - allenyl azide cycloaddition - diradical cyclization cascade - ring-closing metathesis

Significance

(±)-Meloscine is a Melodinus alkaloid containing an azabicyclo[3.3.0]octane core within a pentacyclic framework. The total synthesis was achieved here in 19 steps from 2-bromobenzaldehyde.


 

Comment

Bicycle J was formed by a key allenyl azide cyclization cascade involving loss of nitrogen and a diradical recombination in I to construct a C–C bond. The final ring was synthesized using ring-closing metathesis.
