Pd-catalyzed decarboxylative coupling and late-stage oxidation were utilized to, construct the 5H-pyrrolo[2,1-a]isoindol-5-one scaffold. Samarium(II) iodide mediated Reformatsky reaction and intramolecular Mitsunobu reactions were efficiently applied for the synthesis of the 2,3-dihydropyrrolizine ring system. Chlorizidine A is highly prone to degradation; hence, methyl-protected (+/-)-chlorizidine A was prepared.</style></abstract><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6.492</style></custom4><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10 </style></section></record></records></xml>
