Palladium(ii)-catalyzed asymmetric C–H carbonylation to diverse isoquinoline derivatives bearing all-carbon quaternary stereocenters

Abstract

Enantioselective synthesis of tetrahydroisoquinolines bearing an all-carbon quaternary stereogenic center, was achieved via asymmetric C–H activation with high enantioselectivities (up to 93% ee). Fair substrate tolerance was indicated throughout the scope investigation and no evident loss of enantioselectivity was exhibited in late-stage derivatization. This study provides incentives for the construction of diverse chiral isoquinoline derivatives, which are prevalent among pharmaceuticals, natural products, etc.
