(S,R)-N-PINAP was identified to be the chiral ligand for highly enantioselective CuI-catalyzed reaction of tetrahydroisoquinolines (THIQs), alkynes, and 2-bromobenzaldehyde derivatives. This enables us to accomplish the first asymmetric total synthesis of 12 natural 13-methyltetrahydroprotoberberine (13-MeTHPB) alkaloids in only three catalytic steps with 47-64% overall yields. In addition, the Pd-catalyzed reductive Heck cyclization was successfully extended to three Pd-catalyzed domino reactions (Heck/Suzuki, Heck/Sonogashira, and Heck/Heck), which greatly expands the synthetic utility of this catalytic strategy and allows expeditious access to 13-substituted tetrahydroprotoberberines for further bioactivity evaluation.

Hydroxylation of anhydroisodihydrocorycavidine 4 with osmium tetroxide affords the α-glycol 7 and the 13,14-seco keto aldehyde 8.Treatment of the N-oxide 6 with acetic anhydride/acetic acid gives the 7,8-seco diacetate 10 and the indene acetate 11.The for
Absolute Configurations of the cis- and trans-13-Methyltetrahydroprotoberberines. Total Synthesis of (+)-Thalictricavine, (+)-Canadine, (+/-)-, (-)-, and (+)-Thalictrifoline, and (+/-)-, (-)-, and (+)-Cavidine

The tetrahydroprotoberberine alkaloids (+)-thalictricavine and (+)-canadine have been synthesized from an optically resolved (+)-13-carboxy-7,8,13,14-tetrahydro-9-oxoprotoberberine .This establishes the absolute configuration of (+)-thalictricavine as 13S,14R. (+)-Thalictrifoline and (+)-cavidine have also been prepared from a common intermediate, (+)-32, whose absolute configuration was established by correlation with (+)-26.This determines the absolute configuration of (+)-thalictrifoline as 13R,14R, of (+)-corydalic acid methyl ester (22) as 3R,4R, and of the protopine (+)-corycavine (20) as 13R.
