A catalytic, enantioselective formal synthesis of monoterpene indole alkaloid (-)-alstoscholarine is described. The synthesis employs an Ir-amine dual catalyzed asymmetric allylation of aldehyde with 3-indolyl vinyl carbinol derivative to furnish chiral aldehyde as a key asymmetric step. Other key reactions include the construction of the 2-ketopyrrole moiety by Nicolaou's method and TfO promoted Pictet-Spengler cyclization to access Zhu's intermediate .
描述了一种催化、对映选择性的单萜吲哚生物碱(-)-阿替生碱的形式合成。该合成采用 Ir-胺双催化不对称烯丙基化醛[1]与 3-吲哚基乙烯基甲醇衍生物[2],以提供手性醛[3]作为关键的不对称步骤。其他关键反应包括通过 Nicolaou 方法构建 2-酮吡咯部分和 TfO 促进的 Pictet-Spengler 环化以获得朱的中间体[4]。
