Abstract

The synthesis of a number of 2-anilino- and 2-(benzoylamino)-β-carbolin-3-ones in good yields by a one-step sequence from the reaction of pyranoindolones with phenylhydrazine or benzoylhydrazine is described; the observed good regioselectivity of the reaction is discussed. Full assignment of all ^¹H and ^¹³C NMR chemical shifts has been unambiguously achieved.

Key words

benzoylhydrazine - p-benzylic coupling - bisnucleophiles - one-pot reaction - phenylhydrazine - pyranoindoles
