A Desymmetrization-Based Total Synthesis of Reserpine
Park, Jisook,Chen, David Y.-K.
, p. 16152 - 16156 (2018/11/23)
Reported herein is a desymmetrization-based synthetic approach to the fused polycyclic indole alkaloid reserpine. The centerpiece of the developed strategy features an internal desymmetrization process that enabled the use of a readily accessible and nonstereogenic reserpine E-ring precursor, in contrast to the synthesis-intensive and stereodefined E-ring intermediates employed in all past reserpine syntheses. Utilization of inexpensive reagents through an orchestrated sequence of carefully selected chemical transformations further highlight the overall effectiveness of the developed pathway.

Reaction of reserpine'(1) with Zn/TFA resulted in isoreserpine (2), dihydro compound (7), and amino compound (8) via initial epimerization at C- 3. The latter two compounds constitute a novelty in indole alkaloid chemistry: the dihydro compound (7) posses
Genaral Strategies for the Synthesis of Indole Alkaloids. Total Syntheses of (+/-)-Reserpine and (+/-)-α-Yohimbine
Martin, Stephen F.,Rueeger, Heinrich,Williamson, Sidney A.,Grzejszczak, Slawomir
, p. 6124 - 6134 (2007/10/02)
The concise, total syntheses of the indole alkaloids (+/-)-reserpine (1) and (+/-)-α-yohimbine (4) have been completed by the application of a general strategy that features an intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction for the facile construction of the functio
