Abstract

Asymmetric first total synthesis of eudistomidins G, H, and I, tetrahydro-β-carboline alkaloids from the Okinawan marine tunicate Eudistoma glaucus, has been accomplished with the Bischler–Napieralski reaction and the Noyori catalytic asymmetric hydrogen-transfer reaction. The absolute configurations of eudistomidins G, H, and I were confirmed from comparison of the 1H and 13C NMR, and CD spectral data of synthetic and natural ...
