Abstract: | A variety of alkoxy‐substituted benzolactams with a berbine or yohimbane skeleton were prepared from 1‐benzyl‐1,2,3,4‐tetrahydroisoquinolines or 1‐benzyl‐1,2,3,4‐tetrahydro‐β‐carbolines by a phosphine‐free Pd(II)‐catalyzed direct aromatic carbonylation in a Pd(OAc)2‐Cu(OAc)2 catalytic system. The site selectivity was compared with that of the carbonylation with Pd(OAc)2 or Pd(OAc)2·2 PPh3, respectively. |
