A series of β-carboline derivatives was synthesized by the Pictet-Spengler reaction with or without the combretastatin skeleton. The structures of these derivatives were elucidated by spectroscopic techniques. All synthesized compounds were evaluated for

Controlling the reaction selectivity of organic transformations without losing high conversion is always a challenge in catalytic processes. In this work, a H3PO4·12WO3/OMS-2 nanocomposite catalyst ([PW]-OMS-2) was prepared through the oxidation of a Mn(ii) salt with sodium phosphotungstate by KMnO4. Comprehensive characterization indicates that different Mn2+precursors significantly affected the crystalline phase and morphology of the as-synthesized catalysts and only MnSO4·H2O as the precursor could lead to a cryptomelane phase. Moreover, [PW]-OMS-2 demonstrated excellent catalytic activity toward aerobic oxidative dehydrogenation of tetrahydro-β-carbolines due to mixed crystalline phases, enhanced surface areas, rich surface oxygen vacancies and labile lattice oxygen species. In particular, β-carbolines and 3,4-dihydro-β-carbolines could be obtained from tetrahydro-β-carbolines with very high selectivity (up to 99%) over [PW]-OMS-2viatuning the reaction solvent and temperature. Under the present catalytic system, scalable synthesis of a β-carboline was achieved and the composite catalyst showed good stability and recyclability. This work not only clarified the structure-activity relationship of the catalyst, but also provided a practical pathway to achieve flexible, controllable synthesis of functional N-heterocycles.

The present invention relates to a method for preparing a tetrahydro-beta-carboline compound, which comprises a step of preparing a tetrahydro-beta-caboline compound by reacting a tryptamine compound and an aldehyde in an aqueous solution using a reaction accelerator containing a divalent acid. Accordingly, the method for preparing a tetrahydro-beta-carboline compound according to the present invention is an eco-friendly synthetic method that does not use an explosive organic solvent, but uses water as a solvent and tartaric acid which is a natural product as a reaction accelerator, thereby causing no environmental pollution; and requiring no separation process in addition to a simple filtering process since final products are crystals. Therefore, the method for preparing a tetrahydro-beta-carboline compound can be carried out in an industrially very simple and suitable process.

Stereoselective catalysts for the Pictet–Spengler reaction of tryptamines and aldehydes may allow a simple and fast approach to chiral 1-substituted tetrahydro-β-carbolines. Although biocatalysts have previously been employed for the Pictet–Spengler react

Employing TBN/TEMPO as the catalysts and oxygen as the oxidant, the biologically and pharmaceutically significant tetrahydro-β-carboline and β-carboline alkaloid scaffolds that used to be obtained by multi-step processes can now be selectively obtained in only one-stepviadirect aerobic oxidative Pictet-Spengler reactions of tryptamines with alcohols under mild conditions, with water generated as the byproduct. In this reaction, TBN/TEMPO was interestingly found to be able to facilitate the cyclization step of the whole reaction. This method tolerates a variety ofC- andN-substituted tryptamines, and both the more reactive benzylic and allylic alcohols and the less reactive aliphatic alcohols. This method can also be extended to dihydro-β-carboline synthesis and applied to the more available and more economical tryptophan for β-carboline synthesis, revealing its broad substrate scope and potential in synthetic applications.

Organic base DBN has been identified as an efficient reagent for promoting the dehydrogenative/decarboxylative aromatization of tetrahydro-β-carbolines under air atmosphere, to access the corresponding β-carbolines in moderate to good yields. The utility of this protocol for the gram-scale synthesis of β-carboline alkaloids eudistomin U (7) and harmane (10) has also been demonstrated.

Nitrogen-containing heteroarene motifs are found in numerous pharmaceuticals, natural products, and synthetic materials. Although several elegant methods for synthesis of these compounds through dehydrogenation of the corresponding saturated heterocycles have been reported, some of the methods are hampered by long reaction times, harsh conditions, and the need for catalysts that are not readily available. This work reports a novel method for dehydrogenation of N-heterocycles. Specifically, O2.? generated in situ acts as the oxidant for N-heterocycle substrates that are susceptible to oxidation through a hydrogen atom transfer mechanism. This method provides a general, green route to N-heteroarenes.

A mild, efficient and environmentally benign method for synthesis of aromatic β-carbolines via Cu(ii)-catalyzed oxidation of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-β-carbolines (THβCs) was developed, in which air (O2) was used as the clean oxidant. This method has advantages such as environmentally friendliness, mildness, very good tolerance of functional groups, high yielding and easy experiment operation. In addition, this new methodology was successfully applied in the efficient and practical total syntheses of β-carboline alkaloids perlolyrine and flazin.
