関与物質

反応手順

To a solution of indole-5-carbaldehyde (1.0 g, 6.9 mmol) in DMF (15 mL) was added sodium hydride (303 mg of 60% dispersion in oil, 7.59 mmol) in 3 portions. The mixture was stirred for 30 mins. Methyl iodide (1.96 g, 13.8 mmol) was then added and the mixture was stirred overnight. Ethyl acetate (200 mL) was added and solution was washed with H2O (3×20 mL) and brine (25 mL) dried over MgSO4 and concentrated to afford N-methylindole-5-carboxaldehyde as an orange oil (1.0 g, 91%). 1H NMR (200 MHz, CDCl3) δ 10.05 (s, 1H), 8.09 (s, 1H), 7.90-7.80 (m, 1H), 7.35-7.15 (m, 2H), 6.85-6.80 (m, 1H), 3.95 (s, 3H).
