title: Synthesis of Fasicularin.
abstract: The synthesis of a tricyclic marine alkaloid, fasicularin, was accomplished. Stereoselective synthesis of the aza-spirocyclic BC-ring precursor and ensuing construction of the A-ring with stereocontrolled installation of the C2 hexyl group feature prominently in the synthesis.
