(Figure Presented) A general procedure for the synthesis of 1-benzyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinolines was developed, based on organocatalytic, regio- and enantioselective Pictet-Spengler reactions (86-92% ee) of N-(o-nitrophenylsulfenyl)-2-arylethylamines with arylacetaldehydes. The presence of the o-nitrophenylsulfenyl group, together with the MOM-protection in the catechol part of the tetrahydroisoquinoline ring system, appeared to be a productive combination. To demonstrate the versatility of this approach, 10 biologically and pharmaceutically relevant alkaloids were prepared using (R)-TRIP as the chiral catalyst: (R)-norcoclaurine, (R)-coclaurine, (R)-norreticuline, (R)-reticuline, (R)-trimemetoquinol, (R)-armepavine, (R)-norprotosinomenine, (R)-protosinomenine, (R)-laudanosine, and (R)-5-methoxylaudanosine.

An efficient electrochemical four-step route was developed for the preparation of diaryl ether derivatives by using halogenation and dehalogenation processes in addition to electrochemical phenolic oxidation and reduction reactions. The synthesis of (+)-O

Under controlled conditions, 6,7-dimethoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline- 1-carbonitrile can be quantitatively deprotonated in the α-position. Its alkylation directly furnishes 3,4-dihydroisoquinolines which can serve as starting materials for the preparation of various alkaloids. Here, the preparation of the benzylisoquinolines (+)-laudanidine, (+)-armepavine, and (+)-laudanosine as well as the tetrahydroprotoberberines ( - )-corytenchine and ( - )-tetrahydropseudoepiberberine using Noyori's asymmetric transfer hydrogenation are described. The dimeric alkaloids (+)-O-methylthalibrine and (+)-tetramethylmagnolamine were obtained from nonracemic precursors in Ullmann diaryl ether syntheses.

Tracer experimets show that the bisbenzylisoqunoline alkaloid,(S,R)-hayatidin (10) is stereospecifically biosynthesized in young Cissampelos pareira Linn plants by intermolecular oxidativ coupling of (S)-(5)-and (R)-(3)-N-methylcoclaurines whereas (R,R)-isochondrodendrine (14) and (R,R)-bebeerine (12) are formed in the plants by oxidative dimerization of (R)-N-methyl-coclaurine (3).
