Reaction Steps

Prepared in a manner analogous to the multistep procedure described [P. Friedlander and K. Kunz, Chem. Ber., 55, 1597 (1922)] for the preparation of 3-hydroxy-1-phenyl-1H-indole-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester, with 5-chloro-2-(phenylamino)benzoic acid substituted for 2-(phenylamino)benzoic acid in the first step of the synthetic sequence. The final indole product was recrystallized from aqueous 2-methoxyethanol to yield analytically pure product, mp 170°-173° C.
