Asymmetric syntheses of (- )-hastanecine, (- )-turneforcidine and (- )-platynecine

Concise total asymmetric syntheses of three diastereoisomeric 1-hydroxymethyl-7-hydroxy substituted pyrrolizidines, (−)-hastanecine, (−)-turneforcidine and (−)-platynecine, are reported. The doubly diastereoselective conjugate additions of lithium (R)- or (S)-N-benzyl-N-(α-methylbenzyl)amide to tert...
