AI Article Synopsis

  • Indol-2-ylmethyl carbanions, when stabilized by specific groups (alkoxycarbonyl, cyano, or benzenesulfonyl), can react with nitroarenes to create σ-adducts.
  • In the presence of a base like triethylamine or DBU and trimethylchlorosilane, these σ-adducts undergo further transformation.
  • This process results in the formation of indolo[3,2-]quinoline derivatives, achieving moderate to good yields.

Article Abstract

Indol-2-ylmethyl carbanions stabilized by alkoxycarbonyl, cyano or benzenesulfonyl groups react with nitroarenes to form σ-adducts, which in the presence of base (triethylamine or DBU) and trimethylchlorosilane transform into indolo[3,2-]quinoline derivatives in moderate to good yields.
