2-Oxoadipic acid → 1,2,3,4-Tetrahydro-1-carboxy-1-(3-carboxypropyl)-2-ethyl-beta-carboline

참여 물질

반응 단계

5 g of N-ethyl-tryptamine (i.e., 3-(2-ethylaminoethyl)-indole) were dissolved in 100 ml of absolute benzene, and a solution of 4.70 g of α-keto-adipic acid in 50 ml of absolute dioxane was added thereto at room temperature. The mixture was refluxed for 20 hours. After the reaction was completed, the mixture was evaporated to remove solvent. The residue thus obtained was recrystallized from ethanol, whereby 3.51 g of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1-carboxy-1-(3-carboxypropyl)-2-ethyl-β-carboline were obtained. Yield: 38.0%
