Popis: | An organocatalytic dearomative [3 + 2]-annulation of N-alkyl-3-alkylindoles with quinone monoketals is developed. The reaction provides a mild and straightforward way to various benzofuro[2,3-b]indolines of potential biological and pharmaceutical interest in moderate to good yields. Moreover, when 3-phenylindole, a problematic substrate in previous relevant studies, was used as the substrate under the otherwise same reaction conditions, a novel 1,2-shift of the phenyl group occurred followed by aromatization to provide 2,3-diaryl indoles useful for cancer therapy studies in moderate yields. |
