Catalytic (3+2) annulation of donor-acceptor aminocyclopropane monoesters and indoles

Jérôme Waser, Emma Gabrielle Louise Robert, Vincent Géry C Pirenne

The efficient catalytic activation of donor-acceptor aminocyclopropanes lacking the commonly used diester acceptor is reported here in a (3 + 2) dearomative annulation with indoles. Bench-stable tosyl-protected aminocyclopropyl esters were converted into c ...
