✦ 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.
