Abstract

A general method for the synthesis of 5-substituted indolizidines based on intramolecular cyclization oftrans- andcis-2-allyl-6-R-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridines, obtained from pyridine and triallylborane, has been elaborated. The closure of the five-membered ring is carried out by hydroboration-oxidation followed by cyclization of the resulting δ-amino alcohols in the presence of the Ph3P−CBr4−Et3N system. (Pr2BH)2 and Pr3B are used as the hydroborating reagents, and H2O2 in an acid medium is used for the oxidation of 2-[3-(dipropylboryl]-Δ2-piperideines formed. This method has been used for the synthesis of two natural alkaloids: indolizidine 209D (cis-5-hexylindolizidine) and itstrans-isomer were prepared fromcis- andtrans-2-allyl-6-hexyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropiridine, respectively; indolizidine 167B andtrans-5-propylindolizidine were synthesized fromcis- andtrans-2,6-diallyl-1,2,3,6-tetra-hydropyridine, respectively.
