The oxidation of (-)-tabersonine (1) with dimethyldioxirane (DMD) in neutral and acidic medium gave 16-hydroxytabersonine-N-oxide (3) and the didehydrovincamine isomers 4 and 5, respectively. (+)-14,15-Didehydro-quebrachamine (7) furnished the hydroxyindolenine 9, and the pentacyclic derivative 11. (+)- Quebrachamine (8) and DMD in neutral medium gave (7S,20S)-(+)-rhazidigenine (12) which was converted to (2R,7S,20S)-(+)-rhazidine (13b) with hydrochloric acid.

The dye-sensitized photo-oxygenation of (-)-vincadifformine (1) and (-)-tabersonine (3) is discribed.Reaction takes place through the intermediate formation of 16-hydroperoxyindolenines, which decompose to give 2,16-seco-products or which can be efficently trapped by reductants to give a new stereoselective synthesis of the 16-hydroxy-indoles (10) and (14).These compounds are the key precursors to the eburnane alcaloids vincamine (4) and Δ14-vincamine (6).Suitable experimental conditions give compounds (4) and (6) in good yields directly from their Aspidosperma precursor.
AROMATIC SUBSTITUTION EFFECTS IN THE ASPIDOSPERMANE-EBURNANE REARRANGEMENT OF INDOLE ALKALOIDS

The influence of substitutions in aromatic part of indole alkaloids with aspidosperma skeleton on their rearrangement into products with eburnane-type structure is studied.Results are applied to vincamine derivatives.
