Total synthesis of indole and dihydroindole alkaloids. X.1,2 The preparation of novel oxygenated catharanthine derivatives

Abstract
Detailed investigations involving the electrophilic attack of various reagents on the 3,4-double bond of catharanthine [Catharanthus roseus] derivatives (e.g., R = O) furnished a series of novel derivatives of potential use in the syntheses of naturally occurring bisindole alkaloids. These studies include such reagents as peracid, osmium tetroxide and positive iodine.
