Abstract
Reaction of 2,3,3-trimethyl-, 2,3,3,5- and 2,3,3,7-tetramethyl-3H-indoles with 4-nitro-2-chloromethylphenol has given the 5a,6-dihydro-12H-indolo-[2,1-b][1,3]-benzoxazines, which have been examined for ring-chain interconversion by NMR spectroscopy. Treatment of 5a,6-dihydro-12H-indolo[2,1-b][1,3]benzoxazines with either perchloric acid or potassium hydroxide results in opening of the dihydrooxazine ring with the formation of indole derivatives.
