Abstract
A facile synthesis of 6-hydroxyindole-3-acetic acid la, which is me pr oposed aromatic subunit of NPTX-1 similar to 6, is described. Radical cyclization of isonitrile 2 successfully afforded 9 in high yield. The aromatic subunit of NPTX-1 similar to 6 was confirmed as 4-hydroxyind ole-3-acetic acid 12 by comparison of the H-1-NMR spectra with those o f authentic 4- and 6-hydroxyindole-3-acetic acids.
