After the mixture was heated at 55° C. for 12 h the solvent was removed and water was added. The mixture was extracted with EtOAc (3 times), dried over anhydrous MgSO4, filtered and evaporated. After chromatographic purification on silica gel, 7-n-butoxyindole was obtained in 90% yield (310 mg). 1H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3) δ 8.39 (1H, brs), 7.23 (1H, d, J=8.0 Hz, 7.17 (1H, t, J=3.0 Hz), 7.01 (1H, t, J=7.5 Hz), 6.63 (1H, d, J=7.0 Hz), 6.53 (1H, t, J=2.5 Hz), 4.14 (2H, t, J=5.2 Hz), 1.88-1.80 (2H, m), 1.59-1.50 (2H, m), 1.00 (3H, t, J=7.0 Hz).
