resumo
The reaction of indole derivatives with cyanoacetic acid followed by treatment with DMFDMA gave the intermediate indolyl enaminonitriles 3. Further reaction with aminoguanidine yielded 5'-cyanomeridianin analogues 4. The same intermediate reacted with p-methoxyphenylhydrazine to give the pyrazolyl derivative 8. Treatment of (2E)-3-dimethylamino-2-(1H-indol-3-yl)-propenoate 3a with hydroxylamine hydrochloride in basic medium afforded (5-amino-isoxazol-4-yl)-(1H-indol-3-yl)-methanone 5 and the acrylic acid derivative 6 after a short or a long heating, respectively. Unequivocal structural elucidation of the latter compound was achieved from single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies.
