A new triarylaminium radical cation promoted coupling of catharanthine with vindoline is disclosed, enlisting tris(4-bromophenyl)aminium hexachlororantimonate (BAHA, 1.1 equiv) in aqueous 0.05 N HCl/trifluoroethanol (1-10:1) at room temperature (25 °C), that provides anhydrovinblastine in superb yield (85%) with complete control of the newly formed quaternary C16' stereochemistry. A definition of the scope of aromatic substrates that participate with catharanthine in the BAHA-mediated diastereos ...[more]
