A divergent total synthesis of three structurally distinct natural products from imine 9 was accomplished through an approach featuring: 1) a Pd‐catalyzed decarboxylative cross‐coupling, and 2) heteroannulation of 9 with bromoacetaldehyde and oxalyl chloride to give tetrahydroindolizine 6 and dioxopyrrole 7 , respectively. The former was converted into (−)‐rhazinilam, while the latter was converted into (−)‐leucomidine B and (+)‐leuconodine F. A substrate‐directed highly diastereoselective reduction of a sterically unbiased double bond by using a homogeneous palladium catalyst was developed. A self‐induced diastereomeric anisochronism (SIDA) phenomenon was observed for leucomidine B.
