Polyphosphate Ester as a Synthetic Agent. VI. The Bischler-Napieralski Reaction of Tryptamine and Tryptophan Derivatives by Means of Polyphosphate Ester

Abstract
Polyphosphate ester (PPE) was shown to be a good agent of the Bischler-Napieralski reaction for the synthesis of 3,4-dihydro-[beta]-carboline derivatives. 3,4-Dihydro-[beta]-carboline 3-carboxylic acid system, a key intermediate in the cyclization of acyltryptophan series, could be isolated and characterized by this procedure.
