The Söderberg variety of this methodology has been utilized to synthesize several asymmetric tryptophan derivatives along with a collection of 2- and/or 3-substituted indoles. The same protocol has also been employed to make synthetic progress toward the construction of the marine indole alkaloids Dilemmaones A-C. Finally, this versatile cyclization was implemented in studies designed to determine the true structure of the compound isolated by Tomita et. al. and given the name “fistulosin”. Acknowledgments This work is dedicated to my grandparents, Andrew and Helen Dacko, and also to my good friend Jon Murt, all of whom passed away during my time as a graduate student at West Virginia University. I miss them all very dearly and wish they could have been here to witness my accomplishments. I would like to thank my advisor, Dr. Björn Söderberg, for his constant guidance, patience, and friendship during my graduate studies. I owe my development as a chemist to his counseling and support. I would also like to thank the faculty members in the C. Eugene Bennett Department of Chemistry for all their assistance over the years, especially Dr. George O’Doherty, Dr. Jeffrey Petersen, and Dr. Kung Wang for serving on my doctoral defense committee.

  • Synthesis of Indole and Oxindole Derivatives Incorporating Pyrrolidino, Pyrrolo Or Imidazolo Moieties
    From DEPARTMENT OF BIOSCIENCES AT NOVUM Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden SYNTHESIS OF INDOLE AND OXINDOLE DERIVATIVES INCORPORATING PYRROLIDINO, PYRROLO OR IMIDAZOLO MOIETIES Stanley Rehn Stockholm 2004 All previously published papers have been reproduced with permission from the publishers. Published and printed by Karolinska University Press Box 200, SE-171 77 Stockholm, Sweden © Stanley Rehn, 2004 ISBN 91-7140-169-5 Till Amanda Abstract The focus of this thesis is on the synthesis of oxindole- and indole-derivatives incorporating pyrrolidins, pyrroles or imidazoles moieties. Pyrrolidino-2-spiro-3’-oxindole derivatives have been prepared in high yielding three-component reactions between isatin, α-amino acid derivatives, and suitable dipolarophiles. Condensation between isatin and an α-amino acid yielded a cyclic intermediate, an oxazolidinone, which decarboxylate to give a 1,3-dipolar species, an azomethine ylide, which have been reacted with several dipolarophiles such as N- benzylmaleimide and methyl acrylate. Both N-substituted and N-unsubstituted α- amino acids have been used as the amine component. 3-Methyleneoxindole acetic acid ethyl ester was reacted with p- toluenesulfonylmethyl isocyanide (TosMIC) under basic conditions which gave (in a high yield) a colourless product. Two possible structures could be deduced from the analytical data, a pyrroloquinolone and an isomeric ß-carboline. To clarify which one of the alternatives that was actually formed from the TosMIC reaction both the ß- carboline and the pyrroloquinolone were synthesised. The ß-carboline was obtained when 3-ethoxycarbonylmethyl-1H-indole-2-carboxylic acid ethyl ester was treated with a tosylimine. An alternative synthesis of the pyrroloquinolone was performed via a reduction of a 2,3,4-trisubstituted pyrrole obtained in turn by treatment of a vinyl sulfone with ethyl isocyanoacetate under basic conditions.

In case of the synthesis of 1e, [Ph2MePH]Br (3) was identified as a by-product. Deprotonation of 1 by KOtBu offers access to the corresponding phosphonium ylides [Ph2PCHPPh2R] (2a: R = Me; 2b: R = Et; 2c: R = iPr; 2d: R = CH2Mes) in good yields. Further deprotonation of 2a using n-butyllithium allows the isolation of the lithium complex [Li(Ph2PCHPPh2CH2)]n (4) and its monomeric tmeda adduct [(tmeda)Li(Ph2PCHPPh2CH2)] (4a). All compounds were characterized by NMR measurements and, except of 4, by X-ray diffraction experiments.

The Fischer Indole Synthesis is the reaction of a hydrazine derivative of a ketone or aldehyde formed from an aryl hydrazine. It is a multistep process involving a sigmatropic rearrangement, much like the Cope or Claisen rearrangement. It can occur purely thermally, but is normally done at much lower temperature in the presence of a protic acid or Lewis acid.

  • Synthesis and Chemistry of Indole
    Synthesis and Chemistry of Indole 1. Introduction: ➢ Indole is a benzo[b]pyrrole formed by the fusion of benzene ring to the 2,3 positions of pyrrole nucleus. ➢ The word “Indole” is derived from the word India, as the heterocycle was first isolated from a blue dye “Indigo” produced in India during sixteenth century. ➢ In 1886, Adolf Baeyer isolated Indole by the pyrolysis of oxindole with Zn dust. Oxindole was originally obtained by the reduction of isatin, which in turn was isolated by the oxidation of Indigo. ➢ Commercially indole is produced from coal tar ➢ Indole is the most widely distributed heterocyle ➢ Indole nucleus is an integral part of thousands of naturally occurring alkaloids, drugs and other compounds. By Dr. Divya Kushwaha 2. Synthesis of Indole 2.1. Fischer Indole Synthesis: ➢ This reaction was discovered in 1983 by Emil Fischer and so far remained the most extensively used method of preparation of indoles. ➢ The synthesis involves cyclization of arylhydrazones under heating conditions in presence of protic acid or lewis acids such as ZnCl2, PCl3, FeCl3, TsOH, HCl, H2SO4, PPA etc. ➢ The starting material arylhydrazoles can be obtained from aldehydes, ketones, keto acids, keto esters and diketones etc. ➢ Reaction produces 2,3-disubtituted products. Unsymmetrical ketones can give a mixture of indoles. 2.2 Madelung Synthesis: ➢ Base catalyzed cyclization of 2-(acylamino)-toluenes under very harsh conditions (typically sodium amide or potassium t-butoxide at 250-300oC). ➢ Limited to the synthesis of simple indoles such as 2-methyl indoles without having any sensitive groups. By Dr. Divya Kushwaha Mechanism: ➢ A modern variant of madelung reaction is performed under milder conditions by the use of alkyllithiums as bases.

  • Long-Acting Injectable Antipsychotics. Review and Recent Developments
    Review Article Monica Zolezzi, BPharm, MSc. ABSTRACT Long-acting injectable antipsychotics, also known as "depots", were developed in the late 1960s as an attempt to improve compliance and long-term management of schizophrenia. Despite their availability for over 30 years, guidelines for their use and data on patients for whom long-acting injectable antipsychotics are most indicated are sparse and vary considerably. A review of the perceived advantages and disadvantages of using long-acting injectable antipsychotics is provided in this article, as well as a review of the literature to update clinicians on the current advances of this therapeutic option to optimize compliance and long-term management of chronic schizophrenia. Neurosciences 2005; Vol. 10 (2): 126-131 chizophrenia is a chronic disorder for which it is hydrolyze the esterified compound and liberates the Swell recognized that lifelong treatment with parent antipsychotic.2,9,10 Although depot antipsychotics is necessary. Although quite antipsychotics have been available for over 30 successful in treating and preventing relapses,1,2 years, guidelines for their use and data on patients antipsychotics are not readily accepted by patients, for whom long-acting injectables are most indicated thus, non-compliance is common.3,4 Thus, are sparse and vary considerably. In addition, long-acting injectable forms of these medications despite the fact that the use of depot antipsychotics were developed in an attempt to help medication has been extensively promoted to overcome patient compliance
