Abstract
A new total synthesis of the alkaloid variolin B is achieved by a selective and sequential palladium-mediated functionalization of a
trihalo-substituted pyrido[30
,20
:4,5]pyrrolo[1,2-c]pyrimidine. This intermediate is obtained by a new heterocyclization reaction between
an appropriate bromomethyl azaindole and N-tosylmethyl dichloroformimide. The methodology may be effective for the synthesis of
some analogs by substitution on the relatively unexplored C4 and C9 positions of the alkaloid.
