A new method for the substitution of 3-[(dimethylamino)methyl]indoles (gramines) with malonate-based nucleophiles was developed using 2-chloro-4,6-dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazine (CDMT) as the activating agent for the dimethylamino group. The reaction was completed in 1.5-6 h at room temperature in the presence of a tert-amine base and lithium salt. CDMT afforded superior results to methyl iodide, a common activating agent for the dimethylamino group in Mannich bases, particularly in the reactions of 1-substituted gramines. The reactivity of the possible intermediates, bis(indol-3-ylmethyl)dimethylammonium salts, was examined to obtain mechanistic insights on the reaction. This substitution method with CDMT enabled the sequential transformation of gramines: substitution with (N-alkylidene)aminomalonates followed by the Pictet-Spengler reaction under acidic conditions afforded 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-β-carboline derivatives in one pot.
Rhodium-Catalyzed Diastereo- And Enantioselective Tandem Spirocyclization/Reduction of 3-Allenylindoles: Access to Functionalized Vinylic Spiroindolines

A highly selective rhodium-catalyzed tandem spirocyclization/reduction of 3-allenylindoles is reported. By employing a Hantzsch ester as reductant, vinylic spiroindolines are obtained in excellent yields as well as diastereo- and enantioselectivity. In addition, the reaction's synthetic utility is highlighted by broad functional group compatibility and exemplified by a gram scale reaction with subsequent assorted transformations.
