Reaktionsschritte

A mixture of N,N-dimethylformamide (6 ml) and phosphorus oxychloride (1.78 g) was stirred at room temperature for 30 minutes. 4-Methylindole (1.0 g) was added to the reaction solution, followed by stirring at room temperature for one hour. A 5N aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide (15 ml) was added thereto, followed by stirring at 100° C. for further 30 minutes. The reaction solution was cooled, and the precipitated crystals were collected by filtration to give 4-methylindole-3-carboxaldehyde (Compound III-1, 1.14 g).
