Procedure

199 g. (1 mole) of 6-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrocarbazol-1-one and 376 g. (2 moles) of 1,2-dibromoethane are dissolved in 1000 ml. of toluene and stirred together with 1000 ml. of sodium hydroxide solution and 4.25 g. (12.5 m moles) of tetrabutylammoniumhydrogensulfate for 10 hours at 60° C. After evaporating the aqueous layer, distilling off the solvent and recrystallizing the residual crude product, 275 g. of 6-methyl-9-(2-bromoethyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrocarbazol-1-one (90% of the theoretical) melting at 102° to 103° C. are obtained.
