Organodilithium reagents derived from 2-alkyl-N-trimethylsilyl anilines undergo condensation with esters of carboxylic acids to afford substituted indoles.A total of 16 examples are reported; yields in general were good.In conjuction with this program, a convenient, large-scale procedure for preparation of monosilylated anilines was also developed.To demonstrate the utility of the new indole protocol in natural products synthesis, efficient syntheses of (+)-cinchonamine and (+)-epi-cinchonamine as well as a tetracyclic model system for the architecturally complex penitrem mycotoxins were completed in regio- and stereoselective fashion.
Conformational Equilibrium in 8-Methyl-cis-2-thiahydrindane and 8-Methyl-cis-2-oxahydrindane by 13C NMR Spectroscopy

The preferred conformation of 8-methyl-cis-thiahydrindane has been both estimated by 13C NMR chemical shifts and determined by low temperature 13C NMR spectroscopy to be the conformer with the methyl group equatorial with respect to the cyclohexane ring.This result is in disagreement with the interpretation of the temperature dependence of the CD spectra of (+) and (-) 8-methyl-cis-2-thiahydrindane, whereby the conformation with the methyl group axial with respect to the cyclohexane ring was claimed to be the preferred conformation.The preferred conformation of the related oxygen heterocycle, 8-methyl-cis-2-oxahydrindane, has been estimated by 13C NMR chemical shifts to be the conformer with the methyl group axial with respect to the cyclohexane ring.Possible reasons for these observations are discussed.
