The cinchona alkaloid squaramide catalyzed asymmetric Pictet–Spengler reaction and related theoretical studies
Literature Information
Liang Qi, Huacui Hou, Fei Ling, Weihui Zhong
The asymmetric Pictet–Spengler reaction between tryptamine derivatives and aldehydes has been developed with a cinchona alkaloid squaramide as the catalyst, affording the corresponding tetrahedron-β-carbolines in good to excellent yields and ee values. A rational mechanistic pathway has also been proposed based on DFT calculations.

Organic & Biomolecular Chemistry

Organic & Biomolecular Chemistry (OBC) publishes original and high impact research and reviews in organic chemistry. We welcome research that shows new or significantly improved protocols or methodologies in total synthesis, synthetic methodology or physical and theoretical organic chemistry as well as research that shows a significant advance in the organic chemistry or molecular design aspects of chemical biology, catalysis, supramolecular and macromolecular chemistry, theoretical chemistry, mechanism-oriented physical organic chemistry, medicinal chemistry or natural products. Articles published in the journal should report new work which makes a highly-significant impact in the field. Routine and incremental work is generally not suitable for publication in the journal. More details about key areas of our scope are below. In all cases authors should include in their article clear rationale for why their research has been carried out.
