Abstract
The hexacyclic himandrine skeleton 5, which is present in the most complex alkaloids of the tropical rain forest tree Galbulimima belgraveana, has been prepared for the first time. The synthesis begins from the known [3.2.1]benzobicyclooctene intermediate 10. Key steps include a Diels-Alder cycloaddition, Curtius rearrangement, Birch reduction, an intramolecular nucleophilic amination, and a palladium-mediated alkene amination.
