P. Molina et al., A NEW METHOD FOR THE FORMATION OF THE IMIDAZO[4',5'3,4]PYRIDO[2,3-B]INDOLE RING - FORMAL SYNTHESIS OF THE ALKALOIDS FROM MARINE ORIGIN GROSSULARINE-1 AND GROSSULARINE-2, Tetrahedron letters, 38(39), 1997, pp. 6909-6912
A new synthesis of the thylamino-4-hydroxy-6-methoxymethyl-3H-imidazo[
4', 5':3,4] pyrido[2,3-b]indole,used as key intermediate in the total
synthesis of the alkaloids grossularines -1 and -2, based on the step-
wise formation of the pyridine and imidazole rings, is described. (C)
