Three-component synthesis of disubstituted 2H-pyrrol-2-ones: Preparation of the violacein scaffold

An efficient, three-component, microwave-mediated cyclization to prepare the 3,5-disubstituted 2H-pyrrol-2-one core of the bis-indole alkaloid, violacein, is described. Preliminary results indicate an iterative, thermally driven, condensation of a γ-ketoe
