    International audienceA twelve-step synthesis of (-)-(R)-sumanirole starting from quinoline is described. The first synthetic approach, using a chiral Reissert adduct, was too problematic to be pursued further. In the second successful approach, the authors took advantage of the stereoselective epoxidation of a 1,2-dihydroquinoline bearing an Evans' chiral auxiliary at N-1
