An O2-assisted, four-component reaction has been developed to synthesize a wide range of syn-1,3-amino alcohols in one step. The reaction proceeds by oxygenation of vinyl magnesium bromide (component-I) with O2 (component-II) to give

An environmentally friendly and efficient protocol (KX/oxone) for oxidative halocyclization of tryptamine/tryptophol derivatives was developed and demonstrated with 28 examples and concise total synthesis of cyclotryptamine alkaloid protubonines A and B. The distinct advantage of this protocol over all previous methods is that no organic byproduct is generated from a halogenating agent or oxidant, thus greatly reducing the environmental impact of halocyclization and facilitating the post-reaction purification.

Highly enantioselective hydrogenation of N-protected indoles was successfully developed by use of the rhodium catalyst generated in situ from [Rh(nbd)2]SbF6 and the chiral bisphosphine PhTRAP, which can form a trans-chelate complex with a transition metal atom. The PhTRAP-rhodium catalyst required a base (e.g., Cs2CO3) for the achievement of high enantioselectivity. Various 2-substituted N-acetylindoles were converted into the corresponding chiral indolines with up to 95% ee. The hydrogenations of 3-substituted N-tosylindoles yielded indolines possessing a stereogenic center at the 3-position with high enantiomeric excesses (up to 98% ee).

A total asymmetric synthesis of (-)-yohimbane and ent-alloyohimbane is reported. The synthesis utilizes a novel aziridine-allylsilane cyclization reaction as a key step in the synthesis. Treatment of optically pure aziridine-allylsilane 16 with BF3 · OEt2 provided a mixture of aminomethyl substituted carbocycles trans-20a and cis-20b in excellent yield and modest diastereoselectivity (trans/cis 3:1). Alkylation of the tosylamide followed by oxidation of the olefin in 20 provided the lactam 38, which was converted to (-)-yohimbane and ent-alloyohimbane by a Bischler-Napieralski reaction. The synthesis provided (-)-yohimbane in eight steps and 24% overall yield (from 16).
