title: Concise enantiospecific synthesis of a coccinellied alkaloid, (-)-adalinine.
abstract: [reaction: see text] An enantiospecific synthesis of a coccinellied alkaloid, (-)-adalinine, was established starting from (S)-(-)-pyroglutamic acid, where a stereoselective Michael addition and a samarium iodide-promoted regioselective carbon-nitrogen bond cleavage reaction were involved as the key reactions.
