title: Decarboxylative Claisen rearrangement reactions: synthesis and reactivity of alkylidene-substituted indolines.
abstract: Microwave-assisted decarboxylative Claisen rearrangement (dCr) reactions of substituted acetate derivatives of 3-(hydroxyalkyl)indoles give de-aromatised products. The reactivity of the resultant compounds was evaluated.
