Craig D, Spreadbury SRJ, White AJP, 2020, Synthesis and hetero-diels–alder reactions of enantiomerically pure dihydro-1H-azepines, Chemical Communications, Vol: 56, Pages: 9803-9806, ISSN: 1359-7345

Thermolysis of enantiomerically pure 3-substituted 7,7-dihalo-2-azabicyclo[4.1.0]heptanes in the presence of K2CO3 gives in good yields 2-alkyl-6-halo-1-tosyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-azepines. These undergo highly stereoselective [4+2] cycloaddition reactions with heterodienophiles and arylation/alkenylation under Suzuki conditions.

A concise synthesis of the macroline-related alkaloid (±)-alstonerine 1 is reported. Key steps are regioselective and stereospecific aziridine ring-opening using a sulfone-stabilised carbanion, Me3Al-meditaed O → N-transacylation–elimination, intramolecular Michael reaction, and one-pot reduction–dehydration–Pictet–Spengler cyclisation.
