The isolation and properties of the heterocycle are detailed and the diversity of chemical approaches toward the natural product are systematically ordered and reviewed.
Two total syntheses of quindoline were achieved. The PPh3-mediated generation of a key nitrene caused the unprecedented formation of a phosphazene. The reaction mechanism was studied by a DFT approach.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
