The features you need : The first total synthesis of lycopodium alkaloid alopecuridine has been achieved in 13 steps in the longest linear sequence, and its biomimetic conversion into sieboldine A has been validated through a two‐step oxidation. The synthesis features a semipinacol rearrangement of a functionalized medium‐sized ring and an intramolecular pinacol coupling mediated by SmI 2 (see scheme; Boc= tert ‐butoxycarbonyl).
