Phosphine-Promoted Synthesis of 9H-Pyrrolo[1,2-a]indole Derivatives via an γ-Umpolung Addition/Intramolecular Wittig Reaction
2018
Lorton, Charlotte | Voituriez, Arnaud
The synthesis of substituted 9H-pyrrolo[1,2-a]indole products from 1H-indole-2-carbaldehydes and allenoates is described, using a phosphine-promoted Michael addition/intramolecular Wittig reaction. This halide- and base-free methodology provides an efficient access to different tricyclic nitrogen-containing heterocycles (18 examples, 32–88% isolated yields).
