Title: Novel Photosynthetic route to Indoles
Post by: acid_egg on June 27, 2002, 05:42:00 AM

Molecule: (https://www.the-hive.ws/forum/faq.pl?Cat=#applet)

tryptamine ("NC1=CC=CC=C1I.[R]CC([R1])=o>>[R1]C1=C([R])C2=CC=CC=C2N1")



Conditions:
           KOBu^t,irrad.
           ------------>
              liq.NH3


ref:J.Chem.Soc.,Chem.Commun.950(1979)
   
Non-photochemical indole synth ref for 2-iodoaniline
J.Am.Chem.Soc.,113(1992)

Unfortunately I have no other info on this synth as I have only this brief reference as detailed above.
Anyone with access to the journal or ideas of the usefulness or otherwise of this??
