Abstract

Abstract The synthesis of pyrido [1, 2-a] indolium perchlorates 8, 11 from 2, 4, 6- triarylpyrylium perchlorates 1 and 2-methyl-3H-indoles 6, 9 in the presence of a basic condensing agent (anhydrous sodium acetate, piperidine acetate, triethylamine/acetic acid, triethylamine) in ethanol by a 2, 4-[C 3+ C 2 N] pyrylium ring transformation is reported. Spectroscopic data of the transformation products and their mode of formation are ...
