Synthesis of 5-substituted 4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindoles from cyclohexanones

초록

5-Substituted 4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindoles were prepared from 4-substituted cyclohexanones in three steps: conversion to an enol silyl ether, introduction of a formylmethyl group at 2-C, and the Paal-Knorr pyrrole synthesis by reacting the 1,4-dicarbonyl compounds with ammonia. The substituents are H, methyl, ethyl, tert-butyl, methoxy, and phenyl.
