Synthesis of Optically Active Methyl 1,2,3,3a,8,8a-Hexahydropyrrolo[2,3-b]indole-2-carboxylates Having a Halogen or an Oxygen Functional Group at the 3a-Position
Synthesis of Optically Active Methyl 1,2,3,3a,8,8a-Hexahydropyrrolo[2,3-b]indole-2-carboxylates Having a Halogen or an Oxygen Functional Group at the 3a-Position
1-Methoxy-Nb-methoxycarbonyltryptamine derivatives are successfully converted by either halogenating reagents or iodine/morpholine to 1,2,3,3a,8,8a-hexahydropyrrolo[2,3-b]indoles having a halogen or an oxygen functional group at the 3a-position. Synthesis of the corresponding methyl 1,2,3,3a,8,8a-hexahydropyrrolo[2,3-b]indole-2-carboxylates is also reported.
