title: An intramolecular aza-[3+3] annulation approach to azaphenalene alkaloids. Total synthesis of myrrhine.
abstract: A detailed account on the stereoselective total syntheses of azaphenalene alkaloids via an intramolecular aza-[3+3] annulation strategy is described here. All five members of the Coccinellidae family of defensive alkaloids were prepared from the same common intermediate, which was derived from a stereoselective aza-[3+3] annulation reaction.
