The Diels-Alder reactions of 1-substituted-3-(2-nitrovinyl)indoles 3 with quinones and acetylenes give aromatized 1:1 adducts (- nitrous acid) (1) or (- nitrous acid, -2 hydrogens) 2,5.Likewise, dimerization (-2 nitrous acids) of 3 gives aromatized 2-(3-indolyl)carbazoles 4.In contrast, 3 reacts with maleimides 6 to give 1:2 adducts (-nitrous acid or -2hydrogens) 10 and 11, respectively, along with smaller amounts of 1:1 adducts (- nitrous acid, -2 hydrogens; or -4 hydrogens) 12 and 13, respectively.A mechanism for formation of the nitro products 11 and 13 is discussed.A 1:2 adduct (-2 hydrogens) 19 was also obtained from a Diels- Alder reaction between maleimide and the vinylindole produced in situ by condensing 1-methylindole with acetone.The stereochemistry of this 1:2 adduct has been determined by X-ray crystallography.

1-Benzyl-3-vinylindole gives stable adducts resulting from cycloadditions with 1,4-benzoguinone, 1,4-naphthoquinone, N-phenylmaleimide and maleic anhydride.Vicinal 1H n.m.r. coupling constants for protons on the cyclohexene rings are used to show th
