摘要

An effective synthesis of the functionalized indole ring system has been developed from substituted o-aminostyrene starting material. Our methodology involves a novel cascade reaction sequence of alkyllithium addition to the styrene double bond and subsequent trapping of the intermediate organolithium with a suitable electrophile, followed by an in situ ring closure and dehydration to generate the indole ring. This new reaction sequence ...
