One-pot total synthesis of streptindole, arsindoline B and their congeners through tandem decarboxylative deaminative dual-coupling reaction of amino acids with indoles†
Abstract
This paper described a decarboxylative deaminative dual-coupling reaction of amino acids with indoles to afford BIM scaffolds and its further application to the one-pot total synthesis of natural products. This method featured a stimulating example of activating amino acids in one pot as multi-carbon building blocks for transformation into final targets which are equipped with amino acid side chain backbones.
