Synthesis of Lysergic Acid Derivatives by Tandem Radical Cyclisation Reactions

Abstract
A double radical cyclisation of a 2-bromoaniline derivative, initiated with tri-n-butyltin hydride, to construct the lysergic acid ring system is described; formation of a 6-membered D ring is controlled by an intramolecular thermal cyclisation prior to radical addition.
