A new synthesis of 2,2-dimethylchromenoquinolines from epoxides: synthesis of the alkaloid flindersine

Abstract
Treatment of isopentenylquinoline epoxides with sodium hydroxide in dimethyl sulphoxide gave chromenoquinolines via allylic alcohol intermediates; this led to a new synthesis of the alkaloid, flindersine.
