Reaction of the fischer base with nitro- and bromo-substituted o-hydroxycinnamaldehydes

  • Published:
Chemistry of Heterocyclic Compounds Aims and scope

Abstract

The Fischer base reacts with α-ethyl-5-nitro-, 5-bromo-, and 3,5-dibromo-2-hydroxy-cinnamaldehydes to give bisindoline spirochromans, with 3-bromo-5-nitro-2-hydroxy-cinnamaldehyde to give a mixture of a spirochroman and a monoindoline merocyanine, and with 3,5-dinitro-2-hydroxycinnamaldehyde to give only a merocyanine. The monoindoline merocyanines obtained do not display a tendency to undergo intramolecular cyclization to give spiro-2H-oxocines.
