Abstract

A fully diastereoselective total synthesis of the lycorenine-type Amaryllidaceae alkaloid (+/-)-clivonine (19) is reported via a route that employs for the first time a biomimetic ring-switch from a lycorine-type progenitor, thereby corroborating experimentally the biogenetic hypothesis first expounded for these compounds by Barton in 1960.
