Mild and Efficient Winterfeldt Oxidation of 1,2,3,4-Tetrahydro-γ-carbolines for the Synthesis of Dihydropyrrolo[3,2-b]-quinolones and Pyrrolo[3,2-b]quinolones
The Winterfeldt oxidation (NaOH, DMF, air, rt) of substituted 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-γ-carbolines has been developed, which provides a convenient and efficient method for the synthesis of the corresponding dihydropyrrolo[3,2-b]quinolones in moderate to excellent yields (38–94%). The generality and subst...
