The resulting cycloadducts have the same stereochemistry of biologically active oxindole alkaloids, such as strychnofoline.}, doi = {10.1039/c3ob41415a}, eissn = {1477-0539}, issn = {1477-0520}, issue = {38}, journal = {Organic \& Biomolecular Chemistry}, pages = {6502-6509}, publicationstatus = {Published}, publisher = {Royal Society of Chemistry}, url = {https://nottingham-repository.worktribe.com/output/717062}, volume = {11}, year = {2013}, author = {Day, Jonathan and Uroos, Maliha and Castledine, Richard A. and Lewis, William and McKeever-Abbas, Ben and Dowden, James} }
