A new synthetic approach to the alkaloids related to emetine (3) and quinine(5) from norbornylene(1) is described. Norbornylene(1) was transformed into (±)-norcamphor(2) which was oxidized to the bicyclic lactone(8) by Baeyer-Villiger oxidation then alkylated with ethyl bromide and allyl bromide in a stereospecific fashion to give (9) and (29), respectively. The former lactone(9) was converted into the emetine precursor(21) and protoemetinol(4) both in dl form via the α-diketone monothioketal (13). The latter lactone(29) was converted into the homomeroquinene equivalent(37) via the α-diketone monothioketal(32) which was then transformed into dl-meroquinene aldehyde(6) via the olefin formation through the phenylselenide(41). Since norbornylene(1) has been converted into a chiral norcamphor(2), the present method would be applicable to the synthesis of the above alkaloids together with various indole alkaloids in a chiral form.
