General and Efficient Copper-Catalyzed Oxazaborolidine Complex in Transfer Hydrogenation of Isoquinolines under Mild Conditions.


ABSTRACT: A general and efficient method for copper-catalyzed transfer hydrogenation of isoquinolines with an oxazaborolidine-BH3 complex, under mild reaction conditions, is successfully developed. A broad range of isoquinolines has been reduced to the corresponding products with 61-85% yields. The method is applied to the synthesis of biologically active tetrahydrosioquinoline alkaloid (±)-norlaudanosine in 62% yield, which is the key precursor for the preparation of (±)-laudanosine, (±)-N-methyl-laudanosine, and (±)-xylopinine in one or two steps.
