Synthesis of 2-(pyrimidin-4-yl)indoles.
The synthesis of 2-substituted isomers of the meridianins, a familiy of bioactive indole alkaloids isolated from the tunicate Aplidium meridianum, was undertaken. The synthetic route comprises six steps, with a microwave promoted Fischer cyclization as the key reaction.
