Cascade dearomatization of N-substituted tryptophols via Lewis acid-catalyzed Michael reactions

Abstract

Lewis acid-catalyzed cascade dearomatization of N-substituted tryptophols via Michael addition reaction was developed. The generality of the method has been demonstrated by the synthesis of versatile furoindoline derivatives with a quaternary carbon center in good yields.
