Starting from the sulfur-substituted indolizidines and quinolizidines, a few useful synthetic transformations have been developed and the synthesis of some natural products including indolizidine 209D, epimyrtine, lasubine II, 8a-epi-dendroprimine, and 5-epi-cermizine C has been accomplished.
Synthetic Applications of Sulfur-Substituted Indolizidines and Quinolizidines. -The title compounds are useful synthons which can be converted into various derivatives such as (V) and (XII) as well as natural products including indolizidine 209D (VIII), epimyrtine (IXb), and epi-dendroprimine (XIII). -(CHOU*, S.-S.
