Abstract

The reactions of N-methylsulfonyl-and N-(p-tolylsulfonyl)-2-(cyclopent-1-en-1-yl)-6-methylaniline with molecular bromine in the presence of potassium thiocyanate gave N-methylsulfonyl-and N-(ptolylsulfonyl)-2-(5-isothiocyanatocyclopent-1-en-1-yl)-6-methylanilines. N-Methylsulfonyl-2-(cyclopent-1-en-1-yl)-6-methylaniline reacted with bromine in methanol in the presence of NaHCO3 or with CuBr2 in MeOH to afford N-methylsulfonyl-2-(5-methoxycyclopent-1-en-1-yl)-6-methylaniline. The reaction of N-methylsulfonyl-2-(5-isothiocyanatocyclopent-1-en-1-yl)-6-methylaniline with diethylamine led to the formation of N-methylsulfonyl-2-{5-[diethylamino(thioxo)methyl]aminocyclopent-1-en-1-yl}-6-methylaniline which was converted into 5-methyl-4-methylsulfonyl-2,3,3a,4-tetrahydrocyclopenta[b]indole by heating with potassium hydroxide.
