Abstract
A ruthenium tetraoxide catalyzed degradation of apicidin's tryptophan indol e provided access to two useful carboxylic acid homolog intermediates. The synthesis of a series of potent and/or selective ketone homologs and 2-aryl indoles derived from apicidin is described. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
