Most of the compounds have physiologically active properties, and their biological properties are often attributed to the heteroatoms contained in their molecules, and most of these heteroatoms also appear in cyclic structures. A Journal, Article, Research Support, Non-U.S. Gov’t, Organic Letters called CF3SO2Na-Mediated, UV-Light-Induced Friedel-Crafts Alkylation of Indoles with Ketones/Aldehydes and Bioactivities of Products, Author is Yang, Tianbao; Lu, Huiai; Shu, Yixuan; Ou, Yifeng; Hong, Ling; Au, Chak-Tong; Qiu, Renhua, which mentions a compound: 1968-05-4, SMILESS is C1(CC2=CNC3=C2C=CC=C3)=CNC4=C1C=CC=C4, Molecular C17H14N2, Application In Synthesis of 3,3′-Diindolylmethane.
A concise, one-step route to produce 3,3′-diindolylmethanes (DIMs) from simple indoles and ketones or aldehydes is reported. The key step is the ready formation of indole derivatives that involves the in situ conversion of CF3SO2Na reagent to ·CF3 under oxygen or air (1.0 atm) and UV irradiation It is disclosed that most of the obtained DIMs show anticancer activities in human bladder cancer cell lines EJ and T24.
Different reactions of this compound(3,3′-Diindolylmethane)Application In Synthesis of 3,3′-Diindolylmethane require different conditions, so the reaction conditions are very important.
