36. As described in ref 3a, Wehn and Du Bois also reported a 10-step asymmetric total synthesis of manzacidin A in which the tertiary amine is generated by a stereospecific intramolecular C-H bond amination of the corresponding methine. The required chiral methine precursor was produced via a catalytic asymmetric hydrogenation in moderate stereoselectivity.
37. 99% isolated yield was obtained after a reaction time of 8 days.
