A new C(16)-C(21) skeletal fragmentation of ibogane derivatives, induced by the modified Polonovski reaction, leads in the presence of aspidospermane derivatives to vinblastine-type compounds with the natural C(16'') configuration, which seems necessary for significant antitumor activity. This new method of coupling, which could be the same as the biogenetic pathway, was applied to partial synthesis of naturally occurring antitumor alkaloids of Catharanthus roseus. The circular dichroism technique is of high diagnostic value for this series of compounds to distinguish between the natural or unnatural C(16'') configurations. Another type of skeletal fragmentation at C(5)-C(6), also encountered during this study, was minimized under the experimental conditions.
