Synthesis of 8,9-(1,3-benzodioxolo-5,6)-
5-azatricyclo[8.2.1.01,5]tridec-11-en-6-one.

A synthetic route to 8,9-(1,3-benzodioxolo-5,6)-5-azatricyclo[8.2.1.01,5]tridec-11-en-6-
one structurally isomeric to the pentacyclic cephalotaxine nucleus is suggested. The route is
based on the sequence including diallylboration of 2-pyrrolidinone and intramolecular meta-
thesis of the resulting 2,2-diallylpyrrolidine, giving rise to 1-azaspiro[4.4]non-7-ene. This
product was N-acylated with 6-bromohomopiperonylic acid chloride and then subjected to
intramolecular cyclization according to the Heck reaction.
