Abstract

(L)‐Phenylalanine 4 can be converted to N‐(4‐methyl‐3‐pentenyl)tetrahydrosisoquinoline‐3‐carbaldehyde 10 and the corresponding homologous aldehyde 19 in 4 and 5 steps, respectively, by employing the Pictet–Spengler reaction as the key step. After Lewis acid catalyzed cyclization of 10 and 19 the cis‐configured 1‐hydroxybenzo[b]quinolizidine 21a and 11‐hydroxyazepino[1,2‐b]isoquinoline 22a were obtained with high diastereoselectivities. Compound 21a, which was characterized by X‐ray structure analysis, displays a fishbone pattern of endless zig‐zag chains connected via intermolecular hydrogen bonds in the solid state.
