Extending the versatility of the Hemetsberger-Knittel indole synthesis through microwave and flow chemistry

Microwave, flow and combination methodologies have been applied to the synthesis of a number of substituted indoles. Based on the Hemetsberger-Knittel (HK) process, modifications allow formation of products rapidly and in high yield. Adapting the methodology allows formation of 2-unsubstituted indoles and derivatives, and a route to analogs of the antitumor agent PLX-4032 is demonstrated. The utility of the HK substrates is further demonstrated through bioconjugation and subsequent ring closure and via Huisgen type [3+2] cycloaddition chemistry, allowing formation of peptide adducts which can be subsequently labeled with fluorine tags.

A series of racemic indole C5-substituted seco-cyclopropylindoline compounds (2,3 and 5-7) were prepared by coupling 1-(tert-butyloxycarbonyl)-3- (chlorocarbonyl)indoline (seg-A) with 5,6,7-trimethoxy-, 5,6-dimethoxy-, 5-amino-, 5-methylsulfonylamino- and 5-(N,N-dimethylaminosulfonylamino) indole-2-carboxylic acid as seg-B in the presence of 1-ethyl-3-(3- dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide. The synthetic compounds (2,3 and 5-7) were tested for cytotoxic activity against human cancer cell lines (COLO 205, SK-MEL-2, A549, and JEG-3) using the MTT assay.
