Application

1,2,3,4-Tetrahydrocarbazole can be used as a starting material to prepare:
  • Spiro[cyclopentane-1,2′-indolin-3′-one] by photooxygenation.
  • 9-Acyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrocarbazoles by N-acylation reactions.
  • Carbazole via palladium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation reaction.

ConspectusThe Pictet-Spengler reaction is a fundamental named reaction in organic chemistry, and it is the most straightforward method for the synthesis of tetrahydro-β-carbolines, a core structure embedded in numerous alkaloids. Spiroindolenines are often proposed as possible intermediates in Pictet-Spengler reactions.

An investigation of the structure-affinity relationships for the binding of 4-(N,N-dimethylaminomethyl)-N(9)-arylsulfonyl-9H-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrocarbazoles (conformationally-constrained analogues of the benzenesulfonyltryptamine 5-HT(6) antagonist MS-245) at human 5-HT(6) receptors revealed that various arylsulfonyl substituents are tolerated and that the 4-(N,N-dimethylaminomethyl) group is not required for binding.
