    Abstract

    Treatment of the anion derived from the ring-fused gem-dichlorocyclopropane 4c with silver tetrafluoroborate afforded the spirocyclic compound 17 in 74% yield. Product 17 was readily converted, over three steps, into the β-odoethyl derivative 20 and treatment of this latter compound with n-Bu3SnH then afforded, in 93% yield and via a radical addition/elimination sequence, compound 2 incorporating the ABCD framework of the aromatic erythrina alkaloids.
