Electrophilic substitution and cyclization of 2,2'-bis(N-methylindolyl): A simple access to potential protein kinase C inhibitor

Article abstract of DOI:10.1002/jhet.5570310221

A strategy is described for the synthesis of functionalized and cyclized 2,2'-bisindolyl derivatives related to several basic systems of natural products. The starting 2,2'-bis(N-methylindolyl) (8) reacts with a variety of electrophiles and electrophilic
