Abstract
Reaction of cyclopropyl phenyl ketone (3) with an equimolar quantity of phenylhydrazine (6) in boiling ethanolic hydrogen chloride under reflux affords 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-2,6-diphenylpyridazine (23) and 3-(2-chloroethyl)-2-phenylindole (22). 8b-Methoxy-, ethoxy-, and propoxy-1,2,3,3a,4,8b-hexahydro-3a-phenylcyclopent[b]indoles (27), (26), and (28), respectively, are isolated from the reaction of cyclobutyl phenyl ketone phenylhydrazone in cooled methanol, ethanol, and propan-1-ol, respectively, saturated with hydrogen chloride.
