    Journal: J Am Chem Soc; 2019 Oct 09; 141(40):16085-16092. PubMed ID: 31525040.
    Abstract:
    The isoquinoline alkaloids isolated from the genus Corydalis possess potent and diverse biological activities. Herein, a concise, divergent, and enantioselective route to access these natural products is disclosed. Key transformations of our approach include a challenging Zn-ProPhenol-catalyzed asymmetric Mannich reaction to build a quaternary stereogenic center and a rapid cationic Au-catalyzed cycloisomerization to the common structural skeleton of these natural products. Subsequent late-stage oxidations and modifications allow efficient access to the targeted alkaloids. Overall, seven natural products have been successfully synthesized in 6 to 10 steps from readily available starting materials, including (+)-corynoline, (+)-anhydrocorynoline, (+)-12-hydroxycorynoline, (+)-12-hydroxycorynoloxine, (+)-corynoloxine, (+)-6-acetonylcorynoline, and (+)-bulleyanaline.
