The title compound, C33H29N3O5, was synthesized by the reaction of racemic trans-2-benzyl-3-(2-furyl)-1-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline-4-carboxylic acid, l-tryptophan methyl ester and diisopropylcarbodiimide in dry dichloromethane. The furan ring is disordered over two positions in a 0.859 (14):0.141 (14) ratio. In the 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline ring system, the heterocyclic ring

T = 0.448 (2) Å, θ = 64.9 (3) and ϕ = 268.3 (3)°. The crystal is extended into a three-dimensional supramolecular architecture through intermolecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and C—H⋯π interactions. The absolute structure was assigned by reference to the chiral starting material.
