Two series of novel tetrahydroisoquinoline derivatives bearing at C-1 position a carbon chain derived from fatty acids were prepared employing two complementary synthetic methodologies. The Pictet-Spengler condensation was performed on myristyl, palmityl, stearyl and oleyl aldehydes, whereas the Bischler-Napieralski cyclization used pelargonic, stearic, linolenic and arachidonic acids. The ability to apply both methods allows further labeling of the final 1-substituted-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinolines for biological studies.
