Synthesis of the Macrocyclic Spermidine Alkaloids Oncinotine, Neooncinotine, Isooncinotine and Pseudooncinotine in Racemic Forms . The four isomeric spermidine alkaloids ( Scheme 1 ) mentioned in the title were synthesized as follows: Reaction of the piperidine derivative 5 and the bromide 6 led to the intermediate 13 which was converted to (±)‐oncinotine (±‐ 1 ) and (±)‐pseudooncinotine (±‐ 4 ) ( Scheme 3 ). The analogous reaction of 5 and the isomeric bromid 7 gave the intermediate 22 from which (±)‐neooncinotine (±‐ 2 ) and (±)‐isooncinotine (±‐ 3 ) were synthesized ( Scheme 4 ). The overall yields were found to be between 22 (±‐ 1 ) and 54% (±‐ 3 ).
