Abstract

Synthesis of tetrahydroisoquinoline with a 1,4-bridged 10-membered sulfur containing macrolactone (5) is described. Phenolic aldolisation, Pictet-Spengler cyclisation of an acid sensitive amino diol under newly developed conditions (LiBr, toluene-TFE, 80 degrees C) and acid promoted intramolecular C-S bond formation leading to a 10-membered cycle are key steps of our synthesis.
