Abstract
The isolation of abresoline (1), the only seco-Lythraceae alkaloid, is one of the few pieces of evidence for the proposed oxidative coupling pathway for the biosynthesis of the Type I Lythraceae alkaloids.1 We required compound 2 for our study of oxidative ary1 coupling as a synthetic route to these alkaloids. The similarity between 1 and 2 prompted the investigation of the synthesis of abresoline as a model for the preparation of 2 and related compounds.Keywords
