A two-directional approach to pyrrolizidines: total syntheses and biological evaluation of alkaloid cis-223B and (+/-)-xenovenine (2013)
Journal Article
Barthelme, A., Richards, D., Mellor, I. R., & Stockman, R. A. (2013). A two-directional approach to pyrrolizidines: total syntheses and biological evaluation of alkaloid cis-223B and (+/-)-xenovenine. Chemical Communications, 49(89), https://doi.org/10.1039/c3cc46800c

Total syntheses of alkaloid cis-223B and xenovenine are reported in 3 and 4 steps respectively using a two-directional synthesis/triple reductive amination strategy, and their neurotoxic properties assessed.
