- A reaction mechanism is proposed for an unusual, reduction of the electron-rich C-C double bond with lithium aluminum hydride in the indole derivatives such as 3. Liberation of an aluminum hydrideanion from 1-indolylaluminum intermediates, i.e., 27 may play an important role for the inversion of the polarity at the 15 position.
