Abstract
AbstractA visible-light-initiated cross-dehydrogenative-coupling amination is described, featuring metal- and photocatalyst-free, at room temperature, and using air as an oxidant. The reaction provides a facile approach for the synthesis of rutaecarpine and its derivatives. The substrates with electron-withdrawing groups give higher yields than those with electron-donating groups, but the substituent position has a negligible influence on the yield. Using binaphthyl-diyl hydrogen phosphate and dibenzyl phosphate as catalysts both deliver satisfying yields. This straightforward light-driven strategy might be applicable to the synthesis of quinazolinone derivatives.

Abstract
The scope of thermolytic, N-Boc deprotection was studied on 26 compounds from the Pfizer compound library, representing a diverse set of structural moieties. Among these compounds, 12 substrates resulted in clean (≥95% product) deprotection, and an additional three compounds gave ≥90% product. The thermal de-Boc conditions were found to be compatible with a large number of functional groups. A combination of computational modeling, statistical analysis, and kinetic model fitting was used to support an initial, slow, and concerted proton transfer with release of isobutylene, followed by a rapid decarboxylation. A strong correlation was found to exist between the electrophilicity of the N-Boc carbonyl group and the reaction rate.

Abstract
Clinical treatment of cryptococcal meningitis (CM) remains a significant challenge because of the lack of effective and safe drug therapies. Developing novel CM therapeutic agents with novel chemical scaffolds and new modes of action is of great importance. Herein, new β-hexahydrocarboline derivatives are shown to possess potent anticryptococcal activities. In particular, compound A4 showed potent in vitro and in vivo anticryptococcal activity with good metabolic stability and blood-brain barrier permeability. Compound A4 was orally active and could significantly reduce brain fungal burdens in a murine model of CM. Moreover, compound A4 could inhibit several virulence factors of Cryptococcus neoformans and might act by a new mode of action. Preliminary mechanistic studies revealed that compound A4 induced DNA double-stranded breaks and cell cycle arrest at the G2 phase by acting on the Cdc25c/CDK1/cyclin B pathway. Taken together, β-hexahydrocarboline A4 represents a promising lead compound for the development of next-generation CM therapeutic agents.

Abstract
Ru-catalyzed tandem amine oxidative dehydrogenation/formal aza-Diels⁻Alder reaction for enantio- and diastereoselective synthesis of indoloquinolizidine-2-ones from tetrahydro-β-carbolines and α,β-unsaturated ketones is described. The reaction proceeds via tandem ruthenium-catalyzed amine dehydrogenation using tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) as the oxidant and a chiral thiourea-catalyzed formal aza-[4 + 2] cycloaddition, providing a step-economical strategy for the synthesis of these valuable heterocyclic products.

Abstract
Treatment of N-Boc-2-aryl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolines with n-butyllithium in THF at -78 °C resulted in efficient lithiation at the 2-position and the organolithiums were trapped with a variety of electrophiles to give substituted products. Variable temperature NMR spectroscopy gave kinetic data that showed that the rate of tert-butoxycarbonyl (Boc) rotation was fast (ΔG‡ ≈ 45 kJ mol-1 at -78 °C) and in situ ReactIR spectroscopy showed fast lithiation at -78 °C. By carrying out the lithiation in the presence of the chiral ligand sparteine, kinetic resolutions with very high levels of enantioselectivity were achieved. The resulting enantioenriched N-Boc-2-aryltetrahydroquinolines were converted to 2,2-disubstituted products without significant loss in enantiopurity. Most electrophiles add at the 2-position and the chemistry provides a way to access tetrahydroquinolines that are fully substituted alpha to the nitrogen atom. Notably, either enantiomer of the 2,2-disubstituted tetrahydroquinolines can be obtained with high selectivity from the same enantiomer of the chiral ligand. Unusually, when methyl cyanoformate was used as the electrophile, substitution occurred in the ortho position of the aryl ring attached at C-2. This change in regioselectivity on changing the electrophile was probed by deuterium isotope studies and by DFT calculations which suggested that the binding of the cyanoformate altered the structure of the intermediate organolithium. Secondary amine products can be prepared by removing the Boc group with acid or by inducing the Boc group to rearrange to the 2-position in the presence of triethylborane and this carbonyl N-to-C rearrangement occurs with retention of configuration from the intermediate enantiomerically enriched organolithium species.
