[reaction: see text] Dimethyldioxirane oxidizes a 2,3-dihydo-1H-pyrrolo[1,2-a]indole unsubstituted at the C-9 position stereoselectively to form a hydroxy ketone with all the basic elements of the mitomycin ring system. On the other hand, a 2,3-dihydo-1H-pyrrolo[1,2-a]indole derivative substituted with an alkyl group at C-9 undergoes an oxidative ring expansion in the presence of dimethyldioxirane to give an FR900482 analogue.
[反应:见正文] 二甲基二氧杂环丙烷将在C-9位未被取代的2,3-二氢-1H-吡咯并[1,2-a]吲哚立体选择性地氧化,形成具有丝裂霉素环系所有基本元素的羟基酮。另一方面,在C-9位被烷基取代的2,3-二氢-1H-吡咯并[1,2-a]吲哚衍生物在二甲基二氧杂环丙烷存在下发生氧化扩环反应,生成FR900482类似物。
