Synthesis of substituted 5-aminomethyl tetrahydro-isoquinolines and dihydro-isoindoles
摘要:
The synthesis of ten substituted aminomethylene tetrahydro-isoquinolines is described, proceeding in eight steps from 5-hydroxyisoquinoline via reductive amination of N-Boc tetrahydro-isoquinoline 5-carboxaldehyde. Likewise, reductive amination was used to prepare four substituted dihydro-isoindoles from the corresponding aldehyde. The dihydro-isoindole ring system was conveniently accessed via a 2+2+2 cycloaddition reaction. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
