Procedure

To a solution of indole-3-carboxaldehyde (100 mmol) in ethanol (500 mL) at room temperature was added potassium hydroxide (110 equiv), the mixture was stirred until total solubilization. The ethanol was completely removed in vacuum and acetone (250 mL) added followed by benzenesulfonyl chloride (110 equiv). The precipitate was filtered off and the filtrate was concentrated and recrystallized from methanol to give a white solid. Yield: 32.6% 1H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3) δ 10.17 (s, 1H), 8.25-8.39 (m, 2H), 7.97-8.09 (m, 3H), 7.69 (t, J=7.33 Hz, 1H), 7.59 (t, J=7.5 Hz, 2H), 7.39-7.54 (m, 2H). MS (ESI) calcd for C15H11NO3S 285.1. found 286.0 [M+H]+.
