The use of o-nitroarylacetonitriles as carbon acids in the Mitsunobu reaction is discussed as a method of carbon-carbon bond formation. This reaction represents a rare example of a carbon acid participating in a Mitsunobu reaction.
Synthesis of C3-Substituted 4-Azaindoles: An Easy Access to 4-Azamelatonin and Protected 4-Azatryptophan
C3-Substituted-4-azaindoles were synthesized from pyridylacetonitriles in a two-step sequence allowing the easy introduction of a range Of substituents. This strategy permits the rapid synthesis of 4-azamelatonin and a protected 4-azatryptophan.
