Abstract:
The Wittig-Horner reaction of protected 3-formylindazoles 1 with (±)-N-(benzyloxycarbonyl)-α-phosphonoglycine trimethyl ester 2 has been developed as a new practical synthesis of dehydro 2-azatryptophans and amino acid derivatives. The preparation of 5-bromo-3-formylindazole is discussed.
