Nucleophilic Substitution Reaction of 1-Methoxyindole-3-carbaldehyde
摘要:
1-Methoxyindole-3-carbaldehyde is proved to be a versatile electrophile and reacts regioselectively at the 2-position with various types of nucleophiles providing 2-substituted indole-3-carbaldehydes.
Nucleophilic substitution reactions were newly found to occur generally in the chemistry of 1-hydroxyindole derivatives. Its application to the synthesis of a phytoalexin, brassicanal A, is reported.
