Synthesis of the Pyrrolizidine Alkaloid (±)‐Trachelanthamidine The important intermediate in the synthesis of the title compound 8 is the diastereoisomer mixture of ethyl 2‐[2‐(1,3 dioxolan‐2‐yl)ethyl]‐5‐oxopyrrolidine‐3‐carboxylate ( 3a/3b ) which was prepared from nitromethane, acrylaldehyde, and diethyl fumarate ( Scheme ). Its reduction (NaBH 4 , t ‐BuOH, MeOH) gave exclusively the trans ‐alcohol 4a , which was converted to the protected pyrrolidine derivative 6 . The deprotection and reduction of 6 gave the pyrrolizidine alkaloid 8 , characterized as its hydrochloride.
