Pyrido[1,2-a]indoles are known as medicinally and pharmaceutically important compounds, but there is a lack of efficient methods for their synthesis. We report a convenient and efficient route to these privileged structures starting from easily accessible 2-substituted pyridines and aryne precursors. A small library of compounds has been synthesized utilizing the developed method, affording variously substituted pyrido[1,2-a]indoles in moderate to good yields.
吡啶并[1,2-a]吲哚是一类具有重要药用和药物化学价值的化合物,但目前缺乏有效的合成方法。我们报道了一种从易得的 2-取代吡啶和芳基前体出发构建这些优势结构的简便、高效方法。利用所开发的方法合成了一系列化合物库,以中等至良好的收率得到了各种取代的吡啶并[1,2-a]吲哚。
