SmI2-mediated dimerization of indolylbutenones and synthesis of the myxobacterial natural product indiacen B

The synthesis and reactivity of indole derivatives substituted in the benzene section was studied. Starting materials 4- and 6-iodoindole were conveniently prepared via the Batcho–Leimgruber route and purified by sublimation. Novel vicinally indolyl-substituted cyclopentanols with unexpected cis-con...
