Popis: A chiral synthesis of tri- O -methylimbricatine ( 2 ), the tri- O -methyl derivative of the unique benzyltetrahydroisoquinoline alkaloid imbricatine ( 1 ) isolated from the starfish Dermasterias imbricata , has been accomplished. As a result of the synthesis, the correctness of the structure and absolute stereochemistry proposed for imbricatine has been unequivocally confirmed.
