A Practical Synthesis of (±)-α-Isosparteine from a Tetraoxobispidine Core

Abstract: [reaction: see text] The title alkaloid was synthesized in racemic form from 3,7-diallyl-2,4,6,8-tetraoxo-3,7-diazabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane (7) by a regioselective diallylation reaction followed by double ring-closing olefin metathesis and exhaustive reduction. Tetraoxobispidine 7 was itself prepared in three simple operations from dimethyl malonate. The entire sequence to alpha-isosparteine was conducted on a multigram scale and proceeded without recourse to chromatography.

“…Therefore, a practical stereocontrolled entry into the sparteine core structure would contribute to exo-ending the versatility of existing asymmetric methods. An elegant approach was detailed in 2005 by Blakemore et al who identified tetraoxobispidine (260) as a synthetically versatile scaffold, which could be readily prepared starting from a Knoevenagel condensation of dimethyl malonate (258) with paraformaldehyde (Scheme 2.57) [85]. The intermediate was directly treated with ammonia (259), followed by cyclization and subsequent double allylation, to provide the key intermediate 260.…”

“…[3,4] This type of propanes are usually prepared via a Knoevenagel condensation reaction resulting in symmetrical compounds with identical electron-withdrawing groups. However, non-symmetrical 1,1,3,3-tetrasubstituted propanes can be obtained by a Michael addition of an activated methylene compound to a Knoevenagel adduct.…”
