Abstract
A shorter path: A highly enantioselective bromocyclization of tryptamine has been developed using an anionic chiral phase-transfer catalyst. This method provides a direct approach for preparing chiral 3-bromopyrroloindoline from tryptamine, which enables a four-step enantioselective synthesis of (-)-chimonanthine. PG=protecting group.
