Abstract

A mild and efficient nBu4NBr-mediated oxidative cycloaromatization to prepare β-carbolines from readily available tryptophans and aldehydes is described. The reaction is practical and allows the synthesis of β-carbolines on gram-scale. Some of products crystallized from the reaction mixture and were easily removed by filtration, obviating the need for chromatographic separation.
