The first asymmetric total synthesis of andranginine (1) via an asymmetric Morita-Baylis-Hillman reaction and a diastereoselective intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction has revealed that natural andranginine (1) isolated from Kopsia arborea existed as a scalemic mixture and contained predominantly the (16R,21S) form rather than the (16S,21R) form.
通过不对称的 Morita-Baylis-Hillman 反应和立体选择性的分子内 Diels-Alder 反应，首次实现了对 (+)-安格洛宁碱（1）的不对称全合成，这表明从 Kopsia arborea 中分离得到的天然 (+)-安格洛宁碱（1）以外消旋混合物的形式存在，并且主要含有（16R,21S）构型，而不是（16S,21R）构型。
