Application of N-acyliminium ions in the asymmetric synthesis of indole alkaloids

We have developed a new and highly stereoselective approach to indolizino[8,7-b]indole derivatives such as (A) and indolizino[2,3-a]quinolizidines (B). Our protocol involves the cyclisation of pendent aromatic substituents onto N-acyliminium intermediates as a key ring-forming step. The indolizino[2...
