Abstract
A gold-catalyzed cyclization reaction of alkynyl-indoles has been developed for the stereoselective construction of the quaternary carbon center of fused indolines. This reaction efficiently produces fused indolines via diastereoselective 6-endo-dig cyclization controlled by a bulky TIPS group, followed by nucleophilic attack of the carboxy group on the resulting imine. The lactone moiety of the fused indoline can be reductively cleaved to produce a tricyclic indoline, which could be useful for the synthesis of akuammiline alkaloids.
