Abstract

Meerwein arylation of 4methoxy-2-nitrobenzenediazonium chloride with formaldoxime to afford 2-nitroanisaldehyde; condensation with nitromethane and reductive cyclization afforded 6-methoxyindole, a necessary intermediate in the total synthesis of reserpine.'Meerwein arylation of 2-nitrobenzenediazonium chloride with 1, 3-butadiene, followed by ozonolysis of the resulting 1-(2-nitrophenyl)-4-chloro-2-butene and reductive ...
