Abstract
In our search for new easily accessible analogues based on the natural product podophyllotoxin, we synthesized 1-aza-4-deoxypicropodophyllotoxin in good overall yield and excellent enantioselectivity. The synthesis was centered around a direct asymmetric Mannich reaction using d-proline as the key step for introduction of the chiral centres. Our synthesis of 1-aza-4-deoxypodophyllotoxin was hindered through the increased instability towards epimerization of the C2 position. We did, however, synthesized a new scaffold based on the opened lactone analogue.

- 14 Lower catalyst loading led to a lower enantioselectivity, 10% catalyst loading gave 72% ee, 20% catalyst loading gave 88% ee.
- 15 This lower temperature is necessary to avoid epimerization of the α-carbon next to the aldehyde during the reduction.
