Abstract

A novel mutagenic compound 1, isolated as a Maillard product from tryptophan and glucose, was synthesized using Larock’s quinoline formation, where addition of iodonium cation to an acetylene moiety of N-propargylaniline triggers subsequent intramolecular electrophilic aromatic substitution to afford quinolines. The key synthetic intermediate 14 was obtained in a good yield when iodonium chloride was employed as an initiator of Larock’s method. Conversion of 14 with another six steps, including annulation of a lactam ring and Curtius rearrangement, furnished the target molecule 1. The synthesized and isolated 1 were identical in comparison of physical and spectral data.
