An efficient synthesis of (6 R ,7 R ,8 S ,8a S )‐6,7,8‐trihydroxyindolizidine and (6 R ,7 R ,8 R ,8a S )‐6,7,8‐trihydroxyindolizidine is described from readily available N ‐BOC‐ L ‐proline, (BOC = tert ‐butoxycarbonyl) which involves the addition of ethyl lithiopropiolate to the aldehyde derived from N ‐BOC‐ L ‐proline as a key step, then cyclization to construct indolizidine skeletons and asymmetric dihydroxylation.
