Allosteric effects on muscarinic acetylcholine M2 receptors were examined in a series of bisquaternary salts of the Strychnos alkaloid caracurine V (6) and related iso-caracurine V, tetrahydrocaracurine V, and bisnortoxiferine ring systems. The

A total synthesis of (-)-strychnine in 15 steps from 1,3-cyclohexanedione in 0.15% overall yield is described. The sequence followed in the assembling of rings is: E → AE [2-(2-nitrophenyl)-1,3-cyclohexanedione] → ACE (3a-aryloctahydroindol-4-one) → ACDE (arylazatricyclic core) → ABCDE (strychnan skeleton) → ABCDEF (Wieland-Gumlich aldehyde) → ABCDEFG (strychnine). The key steps of the synthesis are the enantioselective construction of the 3a-(2-nitrophenyl)-octahydroindol-4-one ring system and the closure of the piperidine ring by a reductive Heck cyclization to generate the pivotal intermediate (-)-14. In contrast, a Lewis acid promoted α-alkoxy-propargylic silane-enone cyclization did not lead to synthetically useful azatricyclic ACDE intermediates. The introduction of C-17 and the closure of the indoline ring by reductive amination of the α-(2-nitrophenyl) ketone moiety complete the strychnan skeleton from which, via the Wieland-Gumlich aldehyde, the synthesis of (-)-strychnine is achieved.

Fifteen steps suffice for an enantioselective total synthesis of (-)- strychnine (1) from 1,3-cyclohexanedione. The key steps are the easy generation of the enantiopure intermediate 2, the closure of the piperidine ring by a reductive Heck reaction, and the elaboration of the indoline nucleus in an advanced synthetic stage. TBDMS = tert-butyldimethylsilyl.

Condensations of L-tryptophan-derived 2-[(methoxycarbonyl)methyl]-3- [2(S)-(benzyloxycarbonyl)-2-(N(b)-benzylamino)ethyl]indole (6) with 4,4- dimethoxyacrolein or with 2,4-hexadienal, followed by removal of the tryptophanyl ester function, respectively gave the tetracyclic acetal (-)- methyl (2S,-3aS,5R,11bR)-3-benzyl-2,3,3a,4,5,7-hexahydro-5- (dimethoxymethyl)-1H-pyrrolol[2,3-d]carbazole-6-carboxylate (10) or the tetracyclic olefin (-)-methyl (2S,3aS,5R,11bR)-3-benzyl-2,3,3a,4,5,7- hexahydro-5-(1-propenyl)-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]carbazole-6-carboxylate (14). Their respective hydrolysis or oxidation provided, enantioselectively, the tetracyclic aldehyde (-)-methyl (2S,3aS,5R,11bR)-3-benzyl-2,3,3a,4,5,7- hexahydro-5-formyl-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]carbazole-6-carboxylate (5). Its reaction with tri-n-butyl-1-(ethoxy)ethoxymethyltin and n-butyllithium, followed by oxidation of the resultant alcohol (-)-methyl (2S,3aS,5R,11bR)-3-benzyl- 2,3,3a,4,5,7-hexahydro-5-(1ξ-hydroxy-2-((1-ethoxy-ethoxy))ethyl-1H- pyrrolo[2,3-d]carbazole-6-carboxylate (16) and cyclization furnished the pentacyclic ketone (-)-methyl (2S,3aS,SR,11bR)-3-benzyl-2,3,3a,4,5,7- hexahydro-3,5-ethano-12-oxo-1H-pyrrolo-[2,3-d]carbazole-6-carboxylate (15). A Horner-Emmons condensation led to the unsaturated esters (-)-methyl (2S,3aS,5R,11bR)-3-benzyl-2,3,3a,4,5,7-hexahydro-3,5-ethano-12-(E and Z)- [(methoxycarbonyl)-methylene]-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]carbazole-6-carboxylates (19 and 20) with 17:1 E/Z selectivity. Reductions of the ester and vinylegous urethane functions in 19 led to the Wieland-Gumlich aldehyde 3 as a 6:1 anomeric hemiacetal mixture. Its condensation with malonic acid provided (- )-strychnine (1) in 5.3% overall yield and 14 steps from the tryptophan derivative 6.

Diaboline (4) has been prepared from strychnine through 23-isonitrosostrychnine (1) and Wieland-Gumlich aldehyde (2).It exhibits a significant hypotensive activity in anaesthetized rats and the effect is dose related.The fall in blood pressure appears to be due to the depressant effect on myocardium.
