description

Abstract The reactivity of indole derivatives towards nitrilimines has been studied. Substituents at positions 1, 2 and 3 of the indole ring greatly affect the course of the reaction. 1,3-Dipolar cycloaddition products (3a,8a,dihydropyrazole-[3,4-b]-indole derivatives) and non-cyclic addition products (3-indolyl derivatives) were obtained depending on these substituents. The structures reported were assigned on the basis of satisfactory analytical, spectroscopic and chemical data.
