Isoindolinones as versatile new chiral templates for use in asymmetric synthesis
thesis
posted on 2018-11-21, 09:12 authored by Darshan G. VaidyaReaction of β-aminothiols with 2-acylbenzoic acids affords the thiazoloisoindolinones (1) as
single diastereoisomers when using chiral non-racemic aminothiol substrates. Attempted
diastereoselective enolate alkylation of (1) led to the formation of the S-alkylated products
(2). Treatment of the sulphoxides of (1) with common Pummerer activators gave novel ring
expanded compounds (3).
[Illustration omitted.]
A cyclisation reaction has been used to generate the pyridoisoquinoline ring system (4) from
readily available bicyclic lactam precursors (5). Enamides (6) were accessed upon cyclisation
of the appropriate lactam precursors instead of the desired tetracyclic isoquinolines (7).

The cyclisation of isoindolinone (8) furnished isoindoloisoquinoline (9), the further
manipulation of which accessed an isomer of nuevamine (10).
