10. Enantiomeric excess was determined by HPLC as a TBDPS ether.
11. The absolute configuration was determined by conversion of 10 to the previously reported product, (+)-(3 S)- N-tert -butoxycarbonyl-3-hydroxymethyl- piperidine. See Supporting Information for details.

20. We synthesized 22 from racemic 6 in 7 steps in a similar manner. See Supporting Information for details.
21. To the best of our knowledge, there is no example of quinolizidine synthesis by aza-Michael reaction using α-substituted enone as a substrate. For an example of quinolizidine synthesis in a similar system, see

25. The product 24 is presumably a thermodynamic product since this isomer was obtained as a single isomer under the basic conditions with heating (Table 1, entry 2), in which the analogous compound underwent epimerization (ref 14b).
26. 3N. See Supporting Information for details.
27. When the reaction was performed without p -quinone, a significant decrease in yield (45%) was observed, likely due to isomerization of the terminal C-C double bonds (ref 10).
28. 3N, a decrease in yield (<60%) was observed.
29. The optical purity of the synthetic petrosin (>99% ee) was confirmed by Mosher's method for a diol derived from 1, which was prepared by reduction of two carbonyl groups, indicating that epimerization of optically active petrosin did not proceed at all in our case.
