title: A general approach to 3-n-butyl-5-alkylindolizidines: total synthesis of (-)-indolizidine 195B.
abstract: Indolizidine type alkaloids have been attractive synthetic targets due to their biological activity. The total synthesis of (-)-indolizidine 195B via a general route, which could potentially be used to prepare other indolizidine alkaloids such as (-)-gephyrotoxin 223AB and (-)-myrmicarin 237A, is described.
