Abstract


3-Alkyl-2-hydroxyindolines, conveniently prepared from 2-hydroxyindolenines and a Grignard reagent, cyclize in the aprotic solvent tetrahydrofuran to afford tetrahydro-3-cyano-2-oxofuro[2,3-b]indoles, while in the protic solvent methanol the chemoselectivity changed to give dihydro-2-amino-3-carbomethoxyfuro[2,3-b]indoles. The steric effect of the alkyl group on the reactivity of 3-alkyl-2-hydroxyindolines is discussed for both processes. The ring transformation of tetrahydro-3-cyano-2-oxofuro[2,3-b]indoles into dihydro-2-amino-3-carbomethoxyfuro[2,3-b]indoles via ?-lactone imines is also discussed.
