importance of enzyme mimics in organic synthesis inspired us to design a novel biomimetic synthesis of β-carboline alkaloids directly from tryptophan and a second amino acid. This novel one-pot protocol utilizes abundant and readily available starting materials and thus presents a green and user-friendly alternative to conventional methods that rely on stepwise synthesis. Driven by molecular iodine and TFA
酶模拟物在有机合成中的重要性日益提高,这促使我们设计一种直接从色氨酸和第二种氨基酸直接合成β-咔啉生物碱的新型仿生生物。这种新颖的一锅法协议利用了丰富且易于获得的起始原料,因此为依赖逐步合成的常规方法提供了绿色且用户友好的替代方法。在分子碘和TFA的驱动下,脱羧,脱氨基,Pictet-Spengler反应和氧化反应相继进行,将生物质氨基酸转化为增值生物碱基序。
