According to the general procedure C described for compound 26, trans-4-ethyl-1,2,3,4,4a,5,6,10b-octahydrobenzo[f]quinoline (43.1 mg, 0.20 mmol, 1.0 equiv.) was protonated with HBF4.OEt2 (30.2 μL, 35.6 mg, 0.22 mmol, 1.1 equiv.), reacted with manganese (III) perchlorophthalocyanine chloride (23.1 mg, 0.020 mmol, 0.10 equiv.), AgSbF6 (6.9 mg, 0.020 mmol, 0.10 equiv.), PhI=NTces (172.2 mg, 0.40 mmol, 2.0 equiv.), and 3Å molecular sieves (40 mg) in DCE (0.4 mL). After 2 h of reacting, another batch of PhI=NTces (86.1 mg, 0.20 mmol, 1.0 equiv.) was quickly added to the reaction mixture. The reaction was further stirred for 13 h. Following work-up, the crude material was purified by flash chromatography (50 mL basic Al2O3 Brockmann grade III, gradient elution 30% EtOAc/Hex (4 column volumes)→0%→1%→2%→3% MeOH/CH2Cl2 (2 column volumes each)), staining with KMnO4 to afford the product as a white solid with green discoloration as a mixture of diastereomers. The relative configuration was determined by NOESY and crystallography data. Run 1 (53.6 mg, 0.121 mmol, 61% yield, 5:1 d.r.). Run 2 (53.8 mg, 0.122 mmol, 61% yield, 6:1 d.r.). Run 3 (49.3 mg, 0.112 mmol, 56% yield, 5:1 d.r.; 4.3 mg, 0.020 mmol, 10% rsm). Average overall yield: 59% (3% rsm) ± 2.9, 5:1 dr.
