p-Benzoquinone (5a) and methyl-p-benzoquinone (5b) react with N-aryl- and N-alkyl derivatives (4a-f) of 2-(aminomethylene)cyclohexanone to yield 2-hydroxy-5-alkyl- or -aryl-cyclohept-indol-6(5H)-ones 6a-j, the structure of which is proved by spectroscopic and chemical methods.A pathway for the reaction is given.By Fischer cyclisation of the phenylhydrazone cycloheptadiindole 16 is prepared from 6h.
