Studies on the biomimetic synthesis of the manzamine alkaloids

The biomimetic synthesis of the manzamine-related alkaloid keramaphidin B is described. The key intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction proposed in the Baldwin and Whitehead hypothesis is demonstrated. An investigation of the modified biomimetic hypothesis proposed by Marazano et al. is also reported. F...
