A straightforward synthetic approach for roxindole.
    Bioorganic & medicinal chemistry letters, 1999, Apr-05, Volume: 9, Issue:7

    A concise synthetic approach to the dopamine autoreceptor agonist roxindole 1 has been devised. The key step in the novel route is the addition of succinic anhydride to 5-methoxyindolylmagnesium bromide, which circumvents the cumbersome construction of the indole moiety - via the Japp Klingemann- Fischer indole methodology - in the original route. This novel route will enable a quick, multi-gram synthesis of roxindole from cheap starting materials.
