Phenanthroindolizidines and phenanthroquinolizidines were concisely synthesized by the reductive decyanization of cyano-promoted intramolecular aza-Diels-Alder cycloadducts followed by aryl-aryl coupling. Cyano groups were removed from α-aminoacrylonitriles via treatment with sodium borohydride in 2-propanol in almost quantitative yields; a possible mechanism was proposed and examined using D-labeling experiments. A systematic study of the effects of the phenanthrene substitution pattern on the anticancer activity against three human cancer cell lines was discussed. (Chemical Equation Presented).

Phenanthro[9,10-b]indolizidin-9-ones, phenanthro[9,10-b]-quinolizidin-9- one, and related benzolactams were synthesized by benzolactam ring formation using Pd(OAc)2-catalyzed direct aromatic carbonylation. This also constitutes a formal synthesis of the representative phenanthroindolizidine and -quinolizidine alkaloids (±)-tylophorine, (±)-antofine, and (±)-cryptopleurine. Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
