title: Total synthesis of rhazinilam: axial to point chirality transfer in an enantiospecific Pd-catalyzed transannular cyclization.
abstract: A total synthesis of rhazinilam based on a transannular cyclization strategy is described. Using a Heck reaction, the axial chirality of a halogenated 13-membered lactam can be exploited to create the quaternary chiral stereogenic center in the target molecule with high enantiospecificity.
