	abstract = {<p>Facile synthesis of nuevamine and isonuevamine has been reported via the regioselectivc reduction of hindered and unhindered carbonyl groups of 3,4-dimethoxyhomopiperonylphthalimide, respectively using sodium borohydridc and diisobutylaluminum hydride, Mowed by an acid catalyzed intramolecular dehydrative cyclization pathways. The chemistry involved in obtaining the regioselectivity has been discussed in brief.</p>},
