Abstract

The synthesis of a chiral pilocarpine analogue 3 in which the lactone ring is replaced by an oxazolidinone and the bridging methylene group is in the ketone oxidation state has been accomplished. The utility of this compound as a key intermediate for the preparation of more complex structures was demonstrated by its reduction to two alcohol epimers and its reaction with a methylene ylide.
