One-step preparation of novel 1-(: N -indolyl)-1,3-butadienes by base-catalysed isomerization of alkynes as an access to 5-(N -indolyl)-naphthoquinones

A series of novel 1-(N-indolyl)-1,3-butadienes, as (1:1) mixtures of the (E) and (Z) dienes, was prepared in one step by base-catalysed isomerization of N-alkylindoles with a terminal butyne chain. The reaction conditions are mild, and in all cases the yields were very high (>90%). The (E) and (Z...
