Abstract

Herein, we describe the enantiodivergent synthesis of the 1,4-cis-disubstituted quinolizidine alkaloid 195C. Although the stereoselectivity of the final hydrogenation reaction was low, we have proposed the first chiral total synthesis of both (-)- and (+)-195C as an enantiodivergent process.
