Procedure

1-Acetyl-3-(2-acetoxyethyl)-4,6-dimethylindoline (2.0 g) was dissolved in AcOH (40 ml) and Br2 (1.9 g) was added, which was followed by stirring at room temperature for 30 min. The reaction mixture was poured into ice water and precipitate was collected by filtration. The precipitate was dissolved in CHCl3, and the mixture was washed with water and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. CHCl3 was evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluent: CHCl3 /MeOH=50/1-10/1) to give 2.7 g of crude crystals of 1-acetyl-3-(2-acetoxyethyl)-5-bromo-4,6-dimethylindoline. The crude crystals were added by portions to a mixture of nitric acid (0.47 ml), AcOH (10 ml) and conc. hydrochloric acid (10 ml) under ice-cooling, and the mixture was stirred at the same temperature for 4 hr. The reaction mixture was poured into ice water and precipitate was collected by filtration. The precipitate was dissolved in CHCl3. After washing with water, the mixture was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and CHCl3 was evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluent: CHCl3 /MeOH=50/1-10/1) to give 1.4 g of 1-acetyl-3-(2-acetoxyethyl)-5-bromo-4,6-dimethyl-7-nitroindoline.
