Design Synthesis and Application of Anti-tumor Compound 6-Bromo-Indole-3-Carbinol[J]. Acta Scientiarum Naturalium Universitatis SunYatseni, 2012,51(2):63-65.DOI:
6-bromo-indole-3-carbinol was synthesized via multiple-step reactions including bromidation
aldollike condensation
cyclization
Vilsmeier-Haack formylation and reduction. The overall yield reaches 26.5%. The structures of all the products have been confirmed by ESI-MS and NMR. Based on the scaffold of the title compound
series of 6-substituted indole-3-carbinols can be prepared in search for the better drug-like compounds.
