Cyclisation reaction involving nitro- and nitroso- groups with tervalent phosphorus compounds.
Reaction is :
(2-NO2)C6H4-C(CH2CH2N(CH3)2)=CH2
=============== (C2H5O)3P ==============>>>
DMT 58 %
2-Nitrostyrene : (NO2)C6H4-CH=CH2
Reaction is :
(NO2)C6H4-CH=CH2
=============== (C2H5O)3P ==============>>>

Reference ???? must find it again in my archives.
Rhodium : Can you Email me with a password for the Tryptamine forum, thanks.
How is this (2-NO2)C6H4-C(CH2CH2N(CH3)2)=CH2 synthesized? I find it pretty hard to attach that =CH2 on the benzylic carbon... [reduction of -NO and -NO2] [Deoxygenation reactions : Cyclisation]

There is no access to the local tryptamine forum for anyone, it is just a link to the discussion board at dmt.lycaeum.org
And PLEASE do find the ref.

2HC=C(2-NO2C6H4)-CH2CH2N(CH3)2
2-(2-nitrophenyl)-4-dimethylamine butene
A good starting compound would be :
2-nitrocinnamic aldehyde.
