Abstract
The Fischer condensation of arylhydrazones of 2, 2, 5, 5-tetramethyl-pyrrolid-3-one has given 1, 1, 3, 3-tetramethyl-7, 8-benzo-1, 2, 3, 4-tetrahydropyrrolo[3, 4-b]indole and 1, 1, 3, 3, 7-pentamethyl-1, 2, 3, 4-tetrahydropyrrolo[3, 4-b]indole. On Clemmensen reduction of the latter, the pyrrole ring undergoes degradation.
