Pyrrolizidine alkaloids: occurrence, biology, and chemical synthesis by Robertson, J, Stevens, K

“…This review covers the isolation and structure of new pyrrolizidines; pyrrolizidine biosynthesis; biological activity, including the occurrence of pyrrolizidines as toxic components or contaminants in foods and beverages; and formal and total syntheses of naturally-occurring pyrrolizidine alkaloids and closely related non-natural analogues.…”

Asymmetric synthesis of the marine alkaloid (-)-(S)-nakinadine C by Davies, S, Roberts, P, Shah, R, Thomson, J

“…The first asymmetric synthesis of the marine alkaloid (-)-(S)-nakinadine C is described. This synthesis employs the conjugate addition of lithium dibenzylamide to an N-α-phenylacryloyl SuperQuat derivative followed by diastereoselective protonation of the intermediate enolate using 2-pyridone as the key step to introduce the stereochemistry. (-)-(S)-Nakinadine C was isolated in 13% yield over 9 steps from commercially available atropic acid, 98:2 dr [(Z):(E) ratio] and &gt;99% ee. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd. …”
