Platinum-Catalyzed Tandem Indole Annulation/Arylation for the Synthesis of Diindolylmethanes and Indolo[3,2-b]carbazolesClick to copy article linkArticle link copied!
Abstract
Various diindolylmethanes were prepared from propargylic ethers and substituted indoles via a platinum-catalyzed tandem indole annulation/arylation cascade. The resulting diindolylmethanes could be converted to natural product malassezin by formylation or indolo[3,2-b]carbazoles by cyclization.
