Tetrahydro-β-carbolines are important synthetic intermediates in the total synthesis of natural products and of compounds exhibiting strong bioactivities. Over the last decades, catalytic methods using chiral catalysts have been described for their synthesis. This review covers catalytic and enantioselective methods to access chiral tetrahydro-β-carbolines and their applications in the elaboration of complex chiral molecules.1 Introduction2 Asymmetric Reduction of Dihydro-β-carbolines2.1 Asymmetric Transfer Hydrogenation Reactions2.2 Asymmetric Hydrogenation Reactions2.3 Biocatalyzed Reduction of Dihydro-β-carbolines3 Organocatalyzed Pictet–Spengler Reactions3.1 Chiral Thiourea-Catalyzed Reactions3.2 Chiral Phosphoric Acid Catalyzed Reactions4 Pictet–Spengler Reactions of In Situ Generated Cyclic Iminiums5 Organocatalyzed Functionalization of Dihydro-β-carboliniums6 Organocatalyzed Alkylation of Tetrahydro-β-carbolines7 Biocatalyzed Dynamic Kinetic Resolution of Tetrahydro-β-carbolines8 Conclusion and Perspectives

The acremines are a family of meroterpenoids isolated from fungi of the genus Acremonium. Here, we present the asymmetric total synthesis of acremine F which hinges on a modestly enantioselective dihydroxylation and a subsequent kinetic resolution via a highly selective asymmetric reduction. Chemoselective oxidation of acremine F gave access to acremines A and B. The dimerization of acremine F to bisacremine E was investigated but could not be achieved, shedding light on the formation of the acremine dimers in nature.

No matter through asymmetric reduction of ketones or kinetic resolution of secondary alcohols, enantioselective synthesis of the corresponding secondary alcohols is challenging when the two groups attached to the prochiral or chiral centers are spatially or electronically similar. For examples, dialkyl (sp3 vs. sp3), diaryl (sp2 vs. sp2), and aryl-alkenyl (sp2 vs. sp2) alcohols are difficult to produce with high enantioselectivities. By exploiting our recently developed Ru-catalysts of minimal stereogenicity, we reported herein a highly efficient kinetic resolution of aryl-alkenyl alcohols through hydrogen transfer. This method enabled such versatile chiral building blocks for organic synthesis as allylic alcohols, to be readily accessed with excellent enantiomeric excesses at practically useful conversions.
