17. RebM efficiency with 7 actually exceeds that with SAM over a 5 min interval (Supporting Information).
18. Reactions with an analogue of 8 lacking the pendant amino acid failed to afford nucleoside-rebeccamycin conjugates; the amino acid of 7 is thus vital for RebM compatibility. This desamino acid control compound was originally disclosed in Pignot, M.; Seithoff, C.; Linscheid, M.; Weinhold. E. Angew. Chem., Int. Ed. 1998, 37, 2888-2891.
