Abstract

The first total synthesis of cryptomisrine, a novel indolo[3,2- b]quinoline dimeric alkaloid from Cryptolepis sanguinolenta, is reported. The approach is based on a convergent methodology which involves a new halogen- dance reaction in quinoline series connected to a cross-coupling reaction.
