Procedure

To a solution of indole 3-carboxaldehyde (8y) (100 mmol) in ethanol (500 mL) at RT was added potassium hydroxide (1.1 equiv). The mixture was stirred until total solubilization. The ethanol was completely removed in vacuum and the residual was dissolved in acetone (250 mL) followed by adding benzenesulfonyl chloride (1.1 equiv, 110 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred for half hour. The precipitate was filtered off and the filtrate was concentrated and recrystallized from methanol to give a white solid. Yield: 33%. 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]+.
