The FeCl3 oxidative cascade reaction of the acetamido stilbene 1 which we reported some years ago produced the first atropodiastereomeric indolostilbene hybrid 3. By contrast, recent investigation of the oxidation of the stilbene succinamide dimer 72 (FeCl3/CH2Cl2) appears, on the basis of spectrosc...
