Calycotomine의 입체선택적 합성 연구

  • Published : 2009.06.30

Abstract

Synthetic studies directed toward an asymmetric total synthesis of calycotomine, an representative tetrahydroisoquinoline, are described. The application of N-tert-butane sulfinyl chiral auxiliary to the Pictet-Spengler type reaction for the efficient synthesis of tetrahydroisoquinoline skeleton has been also investigated.
