title: Catalytically Asymmetric Pd/Norbornene Catalysis: Enantioselective Synthesis of (+)-Rhazinal, (+)-Rhazinilam, and (+)-Kopsiyunnanine C1-3.
abstract: A catalytically asymmetric palladium/norbornene-catalyzed reaction is reported, where α-aryl tetrahydroquinoline derived phosphoramidite L15 is found to be the optimum ligand. Taking advantage of this transformation, the concise and unified enantioselective syntheses of (+)-rhazinal, (+)-rhazinilam, and (+)-kopsiyunnanine C1, C2, and C3 are realized.
