Synthesis of 1,1-disubstituted tetrahydro-β-carbolines from 2-methyleneaziridines
摘要:
Ring opening of indole functionalised methyleneaziridines (3a-c, 7) with alcohols in the presence of boron trifluoride etherate leads to the formation of 1,1-disubstituted tetrahydro-beta-carbolines in moderate to good yields (37-83%). (c) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
