The latter reacts with cyanomethylene reagents, hydrazines, cyanomethylenes and sulfur to form the corresponding ?-pyrido-3-indolopropanoate derivatives 6a,b, pyrazolyltryptophan methyl ester derivatives 8a,b and thiophenotryptophan methyl ester derivatives 10a,b, respectively. Also compound 3 reacts with benzaldehyde to give the condensated product 12. The reactivity of the latter product towards chemical reagents was studied to form pyridine, pyrazole and isoxazole derivatives.English13 - oxazinePyrazdPyridineTeyptophaneSynthesis of novel tryptophan derivatives of potential biological activityArticlehttps://doi.org/10.4067/S0717-97072009000200018PubMed ID :
