An organolithium addition-intramolecular α-amidoalkylation sequence on <i>N</i>-phenethylimides has been developed for the synthesis of fused tetrahydroisoquinoline systems using 1,1'-bi-2-naphthol (binol)-derived Brønsted acids. This transformation is the first in which activated benzene derivatives are used as internal nucleophiles, instead of electron-rich heteroaromatics, generating a quaternary stereocenter. Phenolic substitution on the aromatic ring of the phenethylamino moiety and the use ...[more]
