Reusable, homogeneous water soluble photoredox catalyzed oxidative dehydrogenation of N-heterocycles in a biphasic system: application to the synthesis of biologically active natural products
the substrate and catalyst at room temperature. Its potential applications to organic transformations are demonstrated by the synthesis of various biologically active N-heterocycles such as indoles, (iso)quinolines and β-carbolines and natural products such as eudistominU, norharmane, and harmane and precursors to perlolyrine and flazin. Without isolation and purification, the catalyst solution can
Employing TBN/TEMPO as the catalysts and oxygen as the oxidant, the biologically and pharmaceutically significant tetrahydro-β-carboline and β-carboline alkaloid scaffolds that used to be obtained by multi-step processes can now be selectively obtained in only one-step via direct aerobicoxidative Pictet–Spengler reactions of tryptamines with alcoholsundermildconditions, with water generated as
DBN has been identified as an efficient reagent for promoting the dehydrogenative/decarboxylative aromatization of tetrahydro-β-carbolines under air atmosphere, to access the corresponding β-carbolines in moderate to good yields. The utility of this protocol for the gram-scale synthesis of β-carboline alkaloids eudistomin U (7) and harmane (10) has also been demonstrated.

A series of β-carbolinederivatives was synthesized by the Pictet-Spengler reaction with or without the combretastatin skeleton. The structures of these derivatives were elucidated by spectroscopic techniques. All synthesized compounds were evaluated for their anti-inflammatory activity in human neutrophils. Among them, two compounds, NTU-228 and HK-72, showed significant inhibitory effects on N-formyl-Met-Leu-Phe
