Abstract

The synthesis of (±)-(2R*,11bS*)-3’-aryl-9,10-dimethoxy-1,3,4,6,7,11b-hexahydrospiro[benzo[α] quinolizin-2,5’-oxazolidine]-2’,4’-diones (1) was achieved by two alternative routes involving the treatment of cyanohydrin 3 with aryl isocyanates via 4-imino derivatives 5 and 6 or the cyclization of the hydroxy ester 9 with aryl isocyanates. Compounds 1 present a trans Conformation in the quinolizidine system and exist in a (2R*,11bS*) configuration.
