摘要

We represented herein a two-step synthesis of 1-methyl-6H-indol-6-one which is an N-containing 6/5 fused bicyclic building blocks in Amaryllidaceae alkaloids. The key step featured is a 'one-pot' ozonolysis/reductive amination/cyclization of allylated cyclohexa-1,3-dione to give bicyclic compounds. Moreover, the formal total synthesis of natural product gamma-lycorane could be achieved through a photo-promoted cyclization/oxidation cascade reaction from the resulting bicyclic intermediate.
