Total Synthesis of Adalinine: Confirmation of Its Structure.-Adalinine (VIII), a new piperidine alkaloid, is prepared in racemic form in five steps starting from cyclopentanone, involving Beckmann rearrangement of the oxime (VI) as the key step. Direct comparison of the synthetic sample with the natural product confirms unambiguously the structure previously proposed. -(BROEDERS, F.; BRAEKMAN, J. C.; DALOZE, D.; Bull.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
