Preparation

Tryptamine 380 (9.0 g, 56.2 mmol) and triethylamine (13.8 g, 136.3 mmol) were dissolved in warm toluene (800 mL). Under vigorous stirring, a solution of triphosgene (6.7 g, 22.6 mmol) in toluene (35 mL) was added dropwise and the mixture was stirred for a further 20 min at room temperature. Then, HBr (30% in acetic acid; 13 mL) was added and the mixture was refluxed for 30 min. After cooling to room temperature, water (300 mL) and ethyl acetate (300 mL) were added and, after separation of the layers, the aqueous phase was extracted once more with ethyl acetate (300 mL). The combined organic layers were dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was recrystallized from methanol/ethyl acetate (1:1) to afford 7.74 g (74%) of 2,3,4,9-tetrahydro-1H-pyrido[ 3,4-b]indol-1-one 382 as a white solid; mp 184°C.

First total synthesis of the proposed structures of orisuaveolines A and B

First total synthesis of the proposed structures of β- indoloquinazoline alkaloids orisuaveolines A and B is reported. The key steps of the synthesis included a Pictet-Spengler reaction to build a six-member lactam which further transformed into target molecular by a one-pot condensation. This synthesis provided an access to the proposed structures of orisuaveolines A and B in a short and convenient manner from inexpensive, commercially available starting materials. The structures of our synthesized products were confirmed by 2D-NMR experiments. First total synthesis of the proposed structures of β-indoloquinazoline alkaloids orisuaveolines A and B is reported.

Investigation into the stability and reactivity of the pentacyclic alkaloid dehydroevodiamine and the benz-analog thereof

Limited synthetic approaches to obtain the biologically active alkaloid dehydroevodiamine (DHED) are known to date. Undesired demethylation in the most widely applied route was found to be a hampering side reaction for the benz-DHED derivative leading to a quinazolinone, which represents a benz-rutaecarpine derivative. For rutaecarpine, a related plant alkaloid, many different synthetic approaches have been described. Alternative reaction procedures to obtain DHED such as methylation of rutaecarpine and oxidation of evodiamine were investigated to make DHED more easily accessible and the latter method proved to be the most successful one. Furthermore, the remarkable equilibrium between the ring closed quinazolinium and the ring open form of the compounds was systematically investigated by UV-vis measurements. The ring open form and the quinazolinium salt, form the same species when incubated in buffer solution for 24 h. A better soluble form, i.e., 'hydroxyevodiamine', seems to represent the biologically active form that has not yet been described.

Fischer Reaction with 2-Perfluoroalkylated Cyclic Imines - An Efficient Route to 2-Perfluoroalkyl-Substituted Tryptamines and Their Derivatives and Homologues

The reaction of 2-perfluoroalkyl-substituted cyclic imines with arylhydrazines was investigated. We found that 2-perfluoroalkylated cyclic imines are highly reactive electrophiles that form, through ring opening, the corresponding hydrazones bearing an amine group at the end of the alkyl chain. Subsequent acidic treatment resulted in a Fischer rearrangement. Thus, a new synthesis of 2-perfluoroalkylated tryptamines and their homologues through a Fischer reaction was developed. The possibility of modification of the indole core of the 2-CF3-substituted tryptamine products was demonstrated, and various 2-trifluoromethylated tryptamines substituted at the 5-position were prepared. An efficient method for the synthesis of CF3-substituted tryptamines was developed based on the Fischer reaction of perfluoroalkyl-substituted cyclic imines with arylhydrazines. A 5-bromotryptamine was also transformed into further derivatives.

Synthesis of 3,4-dihydroisoquinolin-1-ones from N-Boc-(β-Arylethyl) carbamates via isocyanate intermediates

Mild reaction conditions for the regioselective synthesis of isoquinolin-1-ones and related fused-ring heterocycles from N-Boc-protected (β-arylethyl)carbamates are described. The reactions involved the use of Tf2O and 2-chloropyridine and isocyanates are likely to be key intermediates. The method was extended to substrates bearing less nucleophilic aryl moieties by using Lewis acid additives, such as BF3· Et2O, to enhance the Friedel-Crafts-type cyclization of the isocyanate intermediates. This method allowed the synthesis of various substituted isoquinolin-1-ones, β-carbolines, thiophene-fused ring systems and tetrahydrobenzoazepin-1-ones in good yields and with high regioselectivities.
