摘要

The Pictet-Spengler condensation of 3-alkoxyphenethylamines or 3- hydroxyphenethylamines 1 with aldehydes is widely utilized in the synthesis of tetrahydroisoquinolines' and also serves as the biosynthetic route to these alkaloids. 2 Cyclization has generally been reported to proceed para to the activating 3-alkoxy or 3- hydroxy group, thereby generating 6-alkoxy-or 6-hydroxytetrahydroisoquinolines (ie 2 or 4 ...
