graph A synthesis of the antimitotic alkaloids (-)-colchicine and (-)-isocolchicine is reported. Important steps are (a) enantioselective transferhydrogenation of an alkynone, (b) iodine/magnesium exchange with subsequent aromatic acylation, (c) Rh-catalyzed transformation of an alpha-diazoketone into an oxatetracyclic key intermediate through intramolecular [3 + 2]-cycloaddition of an in situ generated carbonyl ylide, and (d) regioselective conversion of the cycloadduct into a tropolone derivative. The new synthetic strategy opens an efficient enantioselective access to colchicine and structural analogues.
