Abstract

1’,2,2’,3,3’,4’-Hexahydro-5,6,6’,7’-tetramethoxy-1-ketospiro[indene-2,1’-isoquinoline] (IVa) and its 7’-benzyloxy analogue (IVb) are synthesized from 3,4-dihydro-1-(4,5-dimethoxybenzocyclobutenyl)isoquinolines (I). 1-Ketospiro[indene-2,1’-β-carbolines] (XIa and XIb) are also obtained by the same method from the corresponding benzocyclobutene derivatives (IXa and IXb).
