Expeditious syntheses of <i>cis</i>-1-methyl-2,3,3<i>a</i>,4,5,9<i>b</i>-hexahydro-1<i>H</i>-pyrrolo-[3,2<i>h</i>]isoquinoline /[2,3-<i>f]</i>]quinoline have been developed. The syntheses started with commercially available material and afforded excellent overall yields in straightforward steps. Intramolecular azomethine ylide-alkene [3+2] cycloaddition is the key step in the construction of these pyrroloisoquinoline and pyrroloquinoline scaffolds. This route is much more atom-economic than thos ...[more]
