A general method for the synthesis of the mitotic kinesin Eg5 inhibitor HR22C16 1 and its analogues based on protecting group (PG)-modulated highly diastereoselective Pictet-Spengler reaction of L-tryptophan methyl ester hydrochloride with meta-(RO)-benzaldehyde is described. By using the enantiomerically pure (1R,3S)-1,3-disubstituted tetrahydro-beta-carboline trans-4c as a common chiral synthon, HR22C16 1 and its analogues 2 and 3 were synthesized in 90.1%, 90.2%, and 86.5% overall yields, respectively.
