Most of the previous syntheses of the marine natural product 6-bromotryptamine have almost certainly led to partial debromination resulting in an impure product containing tryptamine. We show that loss of bromine occurs when lithium aluminum hydride is employed as a reducing agent in the final reaction step leading to 6-bromotryptamine. Reductive-debromination is also likely to intrude during some of the syntheses of 6-bromoindole, the typical precursor to 6-bromotryptamine. None of the seven described syntheses of 6-bromotryptamine that involve a reduction sequence from 6-bromoindole have reported elemental analyses as a measure of purity.

A [4+3] annulation of 2-ylideneoxindoles with crotonate-derived sulfur ylides has been developed. A series of oxepino[3,2-b]indoles were prepared in moderate to excellent yields (62-93%) under mild conditions. Moreover, the synthetic oxepino[3,2-b] indoles can be further transformed into more complex cyclopropa[5,6]oxepino[3,2-b]indoles via a [2+1] cyclopropanation. In addition, the synthetic compounds show certain antiproliferative activity against K562 and MCF-7 cells, and its IC50 values for these two kinds of tumor cells up to 5.40±0.88 μM and 18.41±0.50 μM, respectively.

Compared with the intensively studied C3 spirooxindoles, limited reliable approaches are reported for synthesizing structurally analogous C2-spiropseudoindoxyl derivatives. Here, we developed an efficient method for highly diastereoselective synthesis of
