Abstract
Condensation of 1-alkyl-, 1-allyl-, and 1-benzyl-1,2,3,9a-tetrahydro-9H-imidazo[1,2-a]indol-2-ones with benzaldehydes in acetic acid and subsequent treatment of the reaction mixture with potassium hydroxide afforded 1-substituted 9a-(2-phenylethenyl)-1,2,3,9a-tetrahydro-9H-imidazo[1,2-a]indol-2-one derivatives. 1-Methyl- and 1-ethyl-9a-[2-(4-dimethylaminophenyl)ethenyl]-1,2,3,9a-tetrahydro-9H-imidazo[1,2-a]indol-2-ones were synthesized by alkylation of 9a-[2-(4-dimethylaminophenyl)ethenyl]-1,2,3,9a-tetrahydro-9H-imidazo[1,2-a]indol-2-one with methyl- and ethyl iodides in DMF in the presence of a strong base.
