Notes:
The oxidative transformation of synthetic (+)-aristoteline ((+)-6) into other metabolites which had been isolated from Aristotelia species was investigated. Thus, treatment of (+)-6 with I2 as the single oxidant furnished the naturally occurring indole alkaloids (+)-makonine ((+)-9),(+)-aristotelinone ((+)-11), or (+)-11, 12-didehydroaristoteline ((+)-7) in good yields, the selectivity of the oxidation process depending on the chosen reaction conditions.
