A novel 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition strategy towards securinine and virosecurinine

This thesis describes the development of a novel synthetic route towards the Securinega alkaloids, securinine 1 and virosecurinine 2. The key reaction in this innovative approach is the l,3-dipolar cycloaddition between pyridinium stabilised ylides 169 and γ,δ-unsaturated butenolides 142, to form sp...
