Resumen:
A facile and convenient approach toward the total synthesis of 1,3‐ dimethyl‐6,8‐dimethoxy isoquinoline from phloroacetophenone is reported. The sequence entailed the selective 2,4‐di‐O‐methylation and further triflation of the resulting phenolic product. This was followed by a Stille‐type allylation, an allyl to propenyl isomerization, and the methoximation of the carbonyl moiety. A final microwaves‐assisted 6π‐azaelectrocylization completed the sequence. Functionalized derivatives on C‐1 were also prepared. The heterocycles exhibited cytotoxic activity.
