1 Indoles from Simple Anilines and Alkynes: Palladium-Catalyzed C- Activation Using Dioxygen as the xidant Zhuangzhi Shi, Chun Zhang, Si Li, Delin Pan, Shengtao Ding, Yuxin Cui, and ing Jiao Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2009, ASAP DI: /anie Marie-Céline Frantz Wipf Group, Current Literature May 23, 2009 Marie-Céline Wipf Group Page 1 of 14 5/27/2009

2 istory of indoles Indole = indigo + oleum, since indole was first isolated by the treatment of the indigo dye with oleum. First prepared synthetically by Adolf von Baeyer in Baeyer, Chem. Ber. 1868, 1, 17 Indigo [] Dioxindole + Zn dust Zn Isatin xindole Indole In 1869, he proposed the formula of indole that is accepted today. Baeyer, Chem. Ber. 1869, 2, 679 Indole derivatives = important dyestuffs until the end of the 19th century. In the 1930s, intensified interest in indole when it was discovered its presence in natural products and bioactive molecules. Marie-Céline Wipf Group Page 2 of 14 5/27/2009

3 Biological importance of indoles Bioactive molecules: tryptophane, tryptamines, auxins 2 L-Tryptophan Essential amino-acid Serotonin eurotransmitter 2 Melatonin eurohormone IAA (indole-3-acetic acid) Phytohormone thers natural alkaloids Ergolines Psychedelic drugs Ergoline β-carbolines CS drugs β-carboline Yohimbans Yohimbine Stimulant drug & aphrodisiac Kr atom alkaloids For some reviews on indole alkaloids, see: Kawasaki and iguchi, at.
