Abstract

Intramolecular cyclization ofo-alkenylanilines was studied. Heating ofo-(cyclopent-2-en-1-yl) arylammonium chlorides at 200–220 °C yields cyclopenta[b]indolines as the main reaction products. Cyclization of 4-methyl-2-(pent-3-en-2-yl)aniline under the same conditions gave a mixture of indolines and tetrahydroquinolines. An alk-1-enylarylamine containing a vinylic double bond does not form cyclization products on the nitrogen atom.
