An efficient synthesis of isoindolo[2,1-a]quinoline derivatives via imino Diels-Alder and intramolecular Diels-Alder reactions with furan

摘要

The straightforward synthesis of new isoindolo[2,1a]quinoline derivatives from 2,4-di substituted 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolines bearing a furan fragment via the intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction is reported. The synthesis of key precursors was realized with excellent levels of diastereoselectivity either by Povarov reaction or by a multicomponent condensation approach.
