Formation and Reaction of p-Quinol Acetates of N-Trifluoroacetyltetrahydroisoqunolin-7-ols
摘要:
Lead tetraacetate oxidation of N-trifluoroacetyltetrahydroisoquinolin-7-ols (13a, b) in AcOH gave stable p-quinol acetates (17a, b). Reaction of 17 with trifluoroacetic acid in CH2Cl2 or MeCN gave morphinandienones (15) and aporphines (16), respectively. In contrast with o-quinol acetates (14), it was found that reaction of p-quinol acetates (17) in MeCN was considerably slower than that in CH2Cl2. A mechanistic pathway on the reaction is deduced.
