Depending on bases employed, the resultant Michael addition products (6d, 10, and 11) are found to undergo interesting cyclizations to give novel 3-substituted 1-methoxyindoles (7, 9, and 12)., 金沢大学大学院自然科学研究科生理活性物質科学}, pages = {1231--1234}, title = {Reactions of 1-methoxy-3-(2-nitrovinyl)indole with nucleophiles: An interesting solvent effect and a novel preparation of 3-substituted 1-methoxyindoles}, volume = {57}, year = {2002} }
