Extension of hydrogen borrowing alkylation reactions for the total synthesis of (–)-γ-lycorane

The total synthesis of (–)-γ-lycorane (10 steps) and synthesis of (±)- γ-lycorane (8 steps) was completed from cyclohexenone. A new two step hydrogen borrowing alkylation of an aziridinyl alcohol, coupled with a Ph* deprotection/cyclisation procedure was developed for de novo formation of the fused...
