Starting from 4,5-(methylenedioxy)homophthalic acid, a concise and efficient synthesis of the isoquinoline alkaloids doryanine and oxyhydrastinine is described via the corresponding homophthalimide utilizing a one-pot regioselective reductive dehydration

Oxidation of N-methyltetrahydroisoquinolines with iodosylbenzene in the presence of a catalytic amount of tetrabutylammonium iodide in various solvents afforded N-methyl-2H-3,4-dihydroisoquinol-1-ones in almost quantitative yields. The application of this finding to the oxidation of other isoquinolines, including tetrahydroisoquinolines, lycorine diacetate, and benzyltetrahydroisoquinolines, also afforded the corresponding lactams in good yields, however, accompanied by a few minor byproducts. Under similar conditions, tetrahydroberberine gave a rearranged compound, berberal, as the major product, accompanied by 8-oxoberberine and berberine.
Mercuric dehydrogenations of N-tertiary piperidine derivatives with different substitution pattern
Moehrle, H.,Claas, M.
, p. 749 - 753 (2007/10/02)
A comparison of the dehydrogenation of different N-tertiary piperidine derivatives with mercuric EDTA and mercuric acetate shows an increase of the reaction with the complex method.This is especially evident with the N-demethylation of 1,2,2,6,6-pentamethylpiperidine.Generally with dehydrogenations offering a possibility of generating a tertiary or a secondary carbenium ion, the latter alternative is mostly also realized to a minor extent.
