[reaction: see text] A Brønsted acid-catalyzed highly stereoselective arene-ynamide cyclization is described. These reactions constitute a keteniminium variant of Pictet-Spengler cyclizations, leading to efficient synthesis of nitrogen heterocycles and related alkaloids. Total syntheses of desbromoarborescidines A and C are illustrated here as first applications of this methodology.
[反应:见正文] 描述了一种布朗斯特酸催化的高度立体选择性芳烃-烯炔酰胺环化反应。这些反应构成了皮克特-施彭格勒环化反应的烯酮亚胺变体,可高效合成含氮杂环化合物及相关生物碱。本文展示了去溴树碱A和C的全合成,作为该方法的首次应用。
