摘要

Cyclization of (5-N-pyrrolyl-2-hydroxypentyl) cobaloxime (13) proceeds by intramolecular electrophilic aromatic substitution of a cobaloxime π-cation onto the pyrrole ring to provide 6- exo cyclization product (14) in 95% yield. This cyclization is highly enantioselective. It is applied to a synthesis of highly enantioenriched (−)-tashiromine,(−)-21, and a formal synthesis of (+)-tashiromine.
