Abstract
The synthesis of a new, conformationally restrained analog of tryptoph an, ,4-tetrahydro-2-amino-2-carboxy-cyclopent[b]indole (5) is describe d. The key step involves the BF3. Et2O catalyzed intramolecular cycliz ation of alpha-diazoketone 2b into the 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-cyclopent[b] indol-2-one (3).
