Abstract

Total syntheses of (+)-cytisine,(-)-kuraramine,(-)-isokuraramine, and (-)-jussiaeiine A were achieved via a samarium diiodide-promoted reductive deamination reaction, followed by simultaneous recyclization of a proline derivative to give the corresponding δ-lactam derivative, as a key step.
