Abstract

Abstract The first total synthesis of eudistomin Y 7 (7) and total syntheses of eudistomins Y 1– Y 6 (1–6) are described. An efficient room-temperature conversion of 1-benzyl-3, 4-dihydro- β-carbolines (11) into 1-benzoyl-β-carbolines (14) by a one-pot process of tandem benzylic oxidation and aromatization as the key step of these total syntheses was also studied in detail.
