Sy. Melnik et al., SYNTHESIS AND ANTIPROLIFERATIVE PROPERTIE S OF BIS(INDOLYL)FURAN-2,5-DIONE AND BIS(INDOLYL)-1H-PYRROLE-2,5-DIONE N-GLYCOSIDES, Bioorganiceskaa himia, 22(6), 1996, pp. 458-467
A synthesis of the derivatives of bis(indolyl)furan and bis(indolyl)py
rrole, which contain an acyclic fragment or a residue of D-ribo-, D-xy
lo-, L-arabino-, D-galactopyranose, or D-lactose was described. Bis(in
dole) aglycone was created using 1-glycosylindoles, which were synthes
ized by the indoline-indole method.
