Halogenation of Indole Alkaloids with Halodimethylsulfonium Halogenids and Halodimethylsulfuxonium Halogenids

Abstract

Abstract A new field of application of halodimethyl-sulfonium halogenids and halodimethylsulfoxonium halogenids had been studied. The formers were used for the halogenation of indole alkaloids, compounds of ergoline or aspidospermidine structure, and vincamine.
