54. For this cyclophane, the term endo is used to describe conformers in which the nitrogen atoms of the pyridazine ring are situated underneath the indole system. The term exo is used to describe conformers in which the nitrogen atoms of the pyridazine ring are situated away from the indole system, as shown in Scheme 2.

56. Intermediate 9 is the result of an intramolecular IEDDA reaction from an exo conformation. Reaction from an endo conformation would afford a different diastereoisomer, but this would also produce (±)-10 upon expulsion of nitrogen.
