Abstract

Formation of hydroxyindolenine derivatives by photoinduced oxidation by singlet oxygen of intermediate 3β-cyanocatharanthine (3) allows us to synthesize under mild conditions new alkaloids derivatives, 3β-cyano-7β-hydroxyindolenine-catharanthine (5), 3β-cyano-7β-hydroxyindolinecatharanthine (6) and 7β-hydroxy-indolenine-catharanthine (7), bearing protected indole moities.
