The enantioselective synthesis of the Hancock 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline alkaloids (S)-galipeine, (S)-cuspareine, (S)-galipinine, and (S)-angustureine and the nonnatural enantiomer (R)-galipeine is described herein. The target compounds were obtained in five steps from a racemic quinaldinic acid derived α-amino ester in overall yields of 21.2% to 37.5%. The synthetic route comprised two key steps: an enzymatic kinetic resolution to control the C-2 stereocenter, affording (R)- and (S)-α-amino esters as key chiral intermediates with 94% and 72% ee, respectively, and Wittig olefination of (R)- and (S)-α-amino aldehyde synthons with the corresponding phosphonium salts using a phase-transfer system (t-BuOH/CH2Cl2), thereby allowing the introduction of alkyl substituents at C-2. Finally, the enantioselective synthesis was concluded with the catalytic hydrogenation of olefinic bonds on the Wittig adducts to furnish the target Hancock alkaloids, including (R)-galipeine, whose synthesis is described here for the first time.
