The reaction mixture was stirred at 100° C. overnight. At this time, EtOAc (4 mL) was added to the mixture. The mixture was filtered and the filtrate was washed with water, brine, dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated under vacuum, to obtain 1-tert-butyl-5-nitro-1H-indole (7 mg, 93%). 1H-NMR (CDCl3, 300 MHz) δ 8.57 (d, J=2.1 Hz, 1H), 8.06 (dd, J=2.4, 9.3 Hz, 1H), 7.65 (d, J=9.3 Hz, 1H), 7.43 (d, J=3.3 Hz, 1H), 6.63 (d, J=3.3 Hz, 1H), 1.76 (s, 9H).
