Reaktionsschritte

To a solution of 2-methyl-5-nitro-1H-indole-3-carboxaldehyde (500 mg, 2.45 mmol) in DMF (5 ml) was added potassium carbonate (1.0 g, 7.35 mmol) and benzyl bromide (0.44 ml, 3.68 mmol). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 4 h, diluted with EtOAc, washed with H2O, brine, dried over Na2SO4, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was triturated with Et2O-hexane to yield 1-benzyl-2-methyl-5-nitro-1H-indole-3-carboxaldehyde (Compound 50) as a yellow solid (600 mg, 83%).
