Abstract

AbstractWe have developed an iron-catalyzed synthesis of pyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinoline derivatives with tetrahydroisoquinolines, arylacyl bromides, and nitroolefins. Highly functionalized pyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinolines can be obtained in moderate to good yields through a three-component N-alkylation/oxidative 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition/elimination/aromatization cascade. The obtained products in this study can be easily modified by easy chemical transformations to structurally complex molecules bearing privileged framework.
