Abstract

Details of the isolation of malosatin A, B, and C and the synthesis of melosatin A are presented. Melosatin C has been characterized as 7-methoxy-4-(5-phenylpentyl) isatin. Several Me and OMe substituted isatins are synthesized as models and UV and mass spectra of the series are discussed.
