Biomimetic synthesis of the bisindole framework present in sciodole, an alkaloid from Tricholoma sciodes†
Abstract
A synthesis of the unique bisindole framework present in the mushroom-derived alkaloid sciodole has been achieved, validating a biosynthesis proposal that the C–N bisindole bond present in the natural product is forged by amination of an azafulvenium.
