due to their diverse chemical structures as well as remarkable bioactivities. Herein, we report the concise total syntheses of two isoquinoline alkaloids, menisporphine and daurioxoisoporphine C, through a mild and efficient photoredox-catalyzed direct C–H arylation of isoquinoline core with aryldiazonium salt. This new strategy is complementary to the conventional isoquinoline synthesis and would provide
Efficient and Practical One-Pot Conversions of N-Tosyltetrahydroisoquinolines into Isoquinolines and of N-Tosyltetrahydro-β-carbolines into β-Carbolines through Tandem β-Elimination and Aromatization
An efficient, practical, and general method for conversions of N-tosyltetrahydroisoquinolines (N-tosyl-THIQs) into isoquinolines and of N-tosyltetrahydro-β-carbolines (N-tosyl-THBCs) into β-carbolines is described. Treatment of N-tosyl-THIQs or N-tosyl-THBCs with base in dimethyl sulfoxide afforded dihydroisoquinolines or dihydro-β-carbolines as intermediates, and these were then oxidized in situ by
Novel substituted isoquinoline compounds are disclosed together with novel 2-phenylethylamides useful as precursors or intermediates for the production of the isoquinolines. The substituted isoquinolines exhibit activity in antagonizing the effects of platelet activating factor (PAF).
