本文发展了一种高效、高立体选择性的合成方法,成功构建了具有多个立体中心的手性四氢-γ-咔啉类化合物。通过铱催化亚胺基丙二酸酯与方便易得的吲哚基烯丙醇之间的不对称串联烯丙基化/iso-Pictet-Spengler环化反应,在路易斯酸Zn(OTf)₂促进下进行。通过该方法能获得一系列含有两个非相邻手性中心的手性四氢-γ-咔啉衍生物,产率中等至良好(50%-80%),并表现出优异的立体控制水平(>20:1 dr, 96%->99% ee)。该策略具有高原子经济性,反应生成的水作为副产物。

An efficient and highly stereoselective protocol has been developed for the construction of chiral tetrahydro-γ-carbolines bearing two non-adjacent stereocenters via an iridium-catalyzed asymmetric cascade allylation/iso-Pictet-Spengler cyclization between iminomalonates and readily accessible indolyl allylic alcohols with Lewis acid Zn(OTf)₂ as the promoter. A broad range of chiral tetrahydro-γ-carboline derivatives containing two non-adjacent stereocenters could be obtained in moderate to good yields (50%-80%) with excellent stereocontrol (>20:1 dr, 96%->99% ee). This protocol features high atom economy, generating water as the sole byproduct.
