Abstract

A concise and efficient synthesis of benzo [c] phenanthridines was accomplished by the palladium-catalyzed ring-opening coupling of azabicyclic alkene with o-iodobenzoates, followed by tandem cyclization. The strategy was successfully applied in the total synthesis of benzo [c] phenanthridine alkaloids such as sanguinarine, chelerythrine, nitidine and avicine.
