摘要
Pyrroloindoles are a key structural motif found in a wide number of biologically active alkaloids. Intramolecular copper-catalyzed coupling of readily accessible 2-iodo-tryptophan derivatives occurs in excellent yield, affording a wide range of polysubstituted, enantioenriched tetrahydropyrrolo[2,3-b]indoles. Diketopiperazines are also suitable substrates for this cyclization reaction, which affords a straightforward entry to tetra- to hepta-polycyclic systems.
