Silver- and gold-mediated intramolecular cyclization to substituted tetracyclic isoquinolizinium hexafluorostilbates

J Org Chem. 2010 Sep 3;75(17):5810-20. doi: 10.1021/jo1006174.

Abstract

A convenient route for the synthesis of various charged tetracyclic isoquinolizinium hexafluorostilbates was developed using AgSbF(6)/AuCl(PPh(3)) for the intramolecular addition of amine to alkyne. The described process is tolerant of a variety of functional groups and broadens the diversity of substrates with the use of 8-substituted tetracyclic isoquinolizinium salts.
