Abstract
We present a systematic review of the methods developed for the synthesis of the aromathecin family of compounds (benz[6,7]indolizino[1,2-b]quinolin-11(13H)-ones) and their derivatives. These methods can be broadly classified into four categories based on the construction of pentacyclic structures: Category 1: by constructing a pyridone moiety (D-ring) on the pyrroloquinoline ring (A/B/C-ring), Category 2: by constructing a pyridine moiety (B-ring) on the pyrroloisoquinolone ring (C/D/E-ring), Category 3: by constructing an indolizidinone moiety (C/D-ring) in a tandem reaction, and Category 4: by constructing a pyrrolidine moiety (C-ring) on the isoquinolone ring (D/E-ring).

Abstract
Herein, a series of chiral δ-lactam frameworks have been synthesized and catalyzed by chiral phosphoric acid (CPA) utilizing two kinds of open-chain aza-dienes and azlactones derived from amino acids. This powerful [4 + 2] annulation produces a broad substrate scope with functional group tolerance in yield up to 97% with up to 98:2 er. Moreover, a facile scale-up and straightforward conversion to diversely substituted products verify the synthetic utility of this method featuring good compatibility and high efficiency.

Novel Approach to the Construction of Fused Indolizine Scaffolds: Synthesis of Rosettacin and the Aromathecin Family of Compounds. Molecules 2023; 28:molecules28104059. [PMID: 37241799 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28104059] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/20/2023] [Revised: 05/09/2023] [Accepted: 05/10/2023] [Indexed: 05/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Camptothecin-like compounds are actively employed as anticancer drugs in clinical treatments. The aromathecin family of compounds, which contains the same indazolidine core structure as the camptothecin family of compounds, is also expected to display promising anticancer activity. Therefore, the development of a suitable and scalable synthetic method of aromathecin synthesis is of great research interest. In this study, we report the development of a new synthetic approach for constructing the pentacyclic scaffold of the aromathecin family by forming the indolizidine moiety after synthesizing the isoquinolone moiety. Thermal cyclization of 2-alkynylbenzaldehyde oxime to the isoquinoline N-oxide, followed by a Reissert-Henze-type reaction, forms the key strategy in this isoquinolone synthesis. Under the optimum reaction conditions for the Reissert-Henze-type reaction step, microwave irradiation-assisted heating of the purified N-oxide in acetic anhydride at 50 °C reduced the formation of the 4-acetoxyisoquinoline byproduct to deliver the desired isoquinolone at a 73% yield after just 3.5 h. The eight-step sequence employed afforded rosettacin (simplest member of the aromathecin family) at a 23.8% overall yield. The synthesis of rosettacin analogs was achieved by applying the developed strategy and may be generally applicable to the production of other fused indolizidine compounds.

Abstract
Six 8-oxoprotoberberines were synthesized collectively in four steps with acceptable yields (14-19%), of which the products 8-oxopalmatine, 8-oxopseudopalmatine, 8-oxoberberine, and 8-oxopseudoberberine come from nature. The synthetic route was featured with the In(OTf)3-catalyzed cyclization and Heck coupling. Moreover, the syntheses of the natural products berberine, canadine, and iambertine were achieved via various reductions from 8-oxoberberine, which provided a concise approach to the syntheses of this kind of alkaloids.

Abstract
PhI(OAc)2-mediated ring expansion via 1,2-bond migration and concurrent solvent insertion generate hydroxylated polycyclic pyrrolo/indolo[1,2-a]quinoxaline-fused lactam derivatives in a highly diastereoselective fashion from spiro-fused quinoxalines in good-to-excellent yield. X-ray crystal structure analysis reveals that the polycyclic lactams are nonplanar molecules devoid of any symmetry as they possess one or two axially chiral biaryl or N-arylindolyl bridges along with one chiral center at the bridgehead carbon.

Abstract
A tandem reaction of 2-alkynylbenzaldoximes with propargylic alcohols has been developed for the synthesis of α-(4-bromo-isoquinolin-1-yl)-propenones. Employing 2-alkynylbenzaldoximes as a precursor in the presence of Br2 generates 4-bromo-isoquinoline-N-oxides. Subsequently, dehydroxylation of propargylic alcohols gives carbocation intermediates, which are trapped using the N-oxides, affording aryl-substituted α-enones.

In this work, we report the strategy of one-pot synthesis of protoberberine alkaloid derivatives via palladium-catalyzed cascade α-arylation and cyclization, which can afford the target molecules in moderate to excellent isolated yields using commercially available raw materials under solvent-free conditions. This protocol provides an efficient and convenient path to multisubstituted protoberberine derivatives. In addition, it can directly afford natural alkaloids.

Abstract
A striking dependence on the method of workup has been found for annulation of benzonitriles ArC≡N to N-methyl 2-toluamide (1), facilitated by n-BuLi (2 equiv): quenching the reaction by a slow addition of water produced the expected 1-isoquinolones 2; by contrast, slow pouring of the reaction mixture into water afforded the cyclic aminals 5 (retaining the NMe group of the original toluamide). The mechanism of the two processes is discussed in terms of the actual H+ concentration in the workup. Both 2 and 5 were then converted into the corresponding 1-chloroisoquinolines 3, coupling of which, mediated by (Ph3P)2NiCl2/Zn, afforded bis-isoquinolines 4.
