Abstract

Treatment of phthalideisoquinolines such as alpha- (1) and beta-narcotine (2) as well as beta- (3) and alpha-hydrastine (4) with ethyl chloroformate (ECF) at room temperature afforded, via the chloro-carbamates, the corresponding diastereomeric carbinols with high stereoselectivity. Instrumental analyses of each diastereomeric pair indicate that the major isomers derived from alpha- and beta-narcotine as well as from alpha- and beta-hydrastine are enantiomers of each other. The absolute configuration of the major carbinol 6a from alpha-narcotine (1) was determined by X-ray analysis. The probable difference between the reaction course of alpha- and beta-narcotine is discussed. On the other hand, treatment of alpha-narcotine with ECF under reflux furnished Z-(8) and E-(9) enol lactones, while only the Z-isomer 12 could be isolated from the degradation of beta-hydrastine (3) even at room temperature.
