Abstract

Chemical vs photochemical oxidation of the 2,16 double bond of vincadifformine 1 and 3-oxo vincadifformine 2 yielded inter alia, respectively the ketoöxindoles 7 and 8. Attempts of partial synthesis of vincatine 15 from these derivatives were unsuccessful. The structure of the LAH reduction product of vincatine is revised to 21. The stereochemical course of an earlier total synthesis of vincadifformine is examined.
