Abstract

Compounds that comprise the erythrina alkaloid class of natural products are based on a tetracyclic spiroamine framework and exhibit a range of biological activities on the central nervous system. Herein, we report a new and efficient total synthesis of this multiple-ring system based on an intramolecular acylal cyclisation (IAC) approach. Using this methodology, the tetracyclic core was rapidly assembled over a two-step domino process catalysed by a Lewis acid. The effect of heteroatoms, substituents and ring size on the IAC has also been investigated, and the broad application of this procedure is demonstrated by the synthesis of a library of derivatives in good yields with excellent regioselectivity.
