The N-protected β-carbolines 3 and 4 undergo exclusive metalation at C-4 with 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidinomagnesium chloride (TMPMgCl) and/or diethylamidomagnesium chloride, whereas the unprotected β-carboline 8 is inert under these conditions. The C-4 metalated species react with electrophiles to give 3,4-disubstituted β-carbolines, which are interesting precursors to physiologically active compounds.
