✦ Synopsis


Diastereomers of substituted 2,3,4,9-tetrahydro-1H-b-carbolines were synthesized via asymmetric Pictet-Spengler reaction of the chiral tryptamine derived from R-1-naphthalen-1-yl-ethylamine with 67% of d.e. The S,R-b-carboline can be converted to the R,R form by treating with TFA. Optically pure pyrroloquinolones were obtained from Winterfeldt oxidation of the b-carbolines without epimerization.

## Abstract magnified image New tetrahydroisoquinolines were synthesized by the Pictet‐Spengler reaction. Influence of a wide range of aryl and heteroaryl aldehydes, was investigated in the cyclization step with 3,4‐dimethoxyphenylethylamine **1**, L‐DOPA **2** and L‐3,4‐dimethoxyphenylalanine met
