Short and Efficient Syntheses of Protoberberine Alkaloids using Palladium-Catalyzed Enolate Arylation.
A concise synthesis of the biologically active alkaloid berberine is reported, and a versatile palladium-catalyzed enolate arylation is used to form the isoquinoline core. The overall yield of 50 % is a large improvement over the single, previous synthesis. By design, this modular route allows the r...
