Abstract

The diastereoselective gold(I) catalysed cyclisation of highly substituted aminoallene derivatives allows the synthesis of both epi-DAB-1 and di-epi-lentiginosine. While the sense of stereoselectivity observed is in line with earlier observations on analogous piperidine-forming cyclisations, different ligands and reaction conditions are required to obtain good yields.
