New substituted (1-thioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-β-carbolin-9-yl)acetic acids were designed as the inhibitor of AKR1B1 based upon the structure of rhetsinine, a minor alkaloidal component of Evodia rutaecarpa, and twenty derivatives were synthesized and evaluated. The most active compound of the series was (2-benzyl-6-methoxy-1-thioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-β-carbolin-9-yl) acetic acid (7m), which showed comparable inhibitory activity for AKR1B1 (IC50 = 0.15 μM) with clinically used epalrestat (IC50 = 0.1 μM). In the view of activity and selectivity, the most potent compound was (2-benzyl-6-carboxy-1-thioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-β-carbolin-9-yl)acetic acid (7t), which showed strong inhibitory effect (IC50 = 0.17 μM) and very high selectivity for AKR1B1 against AKR1A1 (311:1) and AKR1B10 (253:1) compared with epalrestat.

The lactamisation of the pyranoindolones 3a-g - available from 1 or 2 -represents a simple synthesis of strychnocarpine (4a) and its substituted derivatives 4b-g, 5b,c.Reduction gives the tetrahydro-β-carbolines 6a-d,f,h.
