result in a diastereomeric ratio of 9.3:1 and 19:1 in favor of the
trans compounds, while the yields are 53% and 73%, respectively. For panclicin D

One of the most recognized and commonly used analgesics, morphine, has been
a challenge for many synthetic chemists over decades. The benzyltetrahydroisoquino-
line alkaloid morphine (

) and the need for large quantities of this drug lend itself to
the efficiency of a domino-based synthetic approach. To this end, the Ogasawara
group has successfully completed a formal synthesis of (
150
)-morphine through a retro-
aldol/electrophilic aromatic substitution process (Scheme 9.26) [58]. The precursor
for this process is ketal

, which can be prepared from the chiral bicyclo[3.2.1]
