A one-pot wonder: 1,2,3,4-Tetrahydroisoquinolines with a C4 stereocenter can be formed by using a one-pot multicomponent chiral phosphoric acid catalyzed transformation of a mixture of oxetane-tethered benzaldehydes, amines, and the dimethyl ester derivative of the Hantzsch ester (see scheme). This transformation can be used to prepare the spermidine alkaloid (+)-(8S,13R)-cyclocelabenzine.
通过一锅多组分手性磷酸催化的混合氧杂环丁烷缩醛-苯甲醛、胺和 Hantzsch 酯的二甲酯衍生物的转化,可以形成具有 C4 立体中心的 1,2,3,4-四氢异喹啉(见方案)。这种转化可用于制备 spermidine 生物碱(+)-(8S,13R)-cyclocelabenzine。
