We report a novel, asymmetric domino Michael/Mannich/N-alkylation sequence for the rapid assembly of the tetrahydrocarbazole framework of Aspidosperma alkaloids. This method was utilized in the concise total syntheses of classical targets (-)-aspidospermidine, (-)-tabersonine, and (-)-vincadifformine in 10 or 11 steps. Additional key steps include ring-closing metathesis to prepare the D-ring and Bosch-Rubiralta spirocyclization to prepare the C-ring.
我们报告了一种新颖的、不对称的多米诺迈克尔/曼尼希/N-烷基化序列,用于快速构建阿皮斯多玛烷生物碱的四氢咔唑骨架。该方法被用于简洁的全合成经典目标物(-)-阿皮斯多麦定、(-)-塔博萨定和(-)-长春多卡辛,总步数为 10 步或 11 步。其他关键步骤包括闭环复分解反应制备 D 环和 Bosch-Rubiralta 螺环化反应制备 C 环。
