Synthesis of 4-Vinylindoles Using Ruthenium-Catalyzed Ring-Closing Enyne Metathesis
摘要:
The selective synthesis of substituted 4-vinylindoles by the ring-closing enyne metathesis (RCEM)/dehydration sequence is reported. In contrast with many known methods in which a pyrrole ring is constructed onto a functionalized benzene precursor, this method enables the construction of a benzene ring onto a pyrrole precursor. The RCEM/tautomerization sequence for the synthesis of 7-hydroxy-4-vinylindole is also presented as an application of this method.
