Solid-phase intramolecular aryl radical cyclization onto a vinyl chloride allows the synthesis of 1-chloromethyl-1,2-dihydro-3H-benz[e]indole (seco-CBI), a structure related to the pharmacophores of CC-1065 and duocarmycin SA. A representative unsymmetrical bis-polyamide conjugate was also synthesized.
