Abstract
Tetrahydro-β-carboline skeletons are prominent and ubiquitous in an extraordinary range of indole alkaloid natural products and pharmaceutical compounds. Powerful synthetic approaches for stereoselective synthesis of tetrahydro-β-carboline skeletons have immense impacts and have attracted enormous attention. Here, we outline a general chiral phosphoric acid catalyzed asymmetric 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of 3,4-dihydro-β-carboline-2-oxide type nitrone that enables access to three types of chiral tetrahydro-β-carbolines bearing continuous multi-chiral centers and quaternary chiral centers. The method displays different endo/exo selectivity from traditional nitrone chemistry. The distinct power of this strategy has been illustrated by application to collective and enantiodivergent total syntheses of 40 tetrahydro-β-carboline-type indole alkaloid natural products with divergent stereochemistry and varied architectures.

Abstract
[reaction: see text] A stereoselective synthesis of the indole alkaloid dihydrocorynantheol (1) from indole-3-acetic acid has been achieved by a sequence involving 9 as a key intermediate. The synthesis of the unsaturated lactam ring in 9 highlights a series of catalytic organometallic reactions featuring two ring-closing metatheses and a zirconocene-catalyzed carbomagnesation. Since no protecting groups were used, the present synthesis of 1 is exceedingly concise, consisting of only eight distinct operations.
