Dimethylformamide → HCID 9945584, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

2,4-Dichlorobenzyl chloride (8.68 g) is added to a mixture of 5-methloxycarbonylindole (6.49 g) 60% (sodium hydride (2.24 g) and N,N-dimethylformamide, while cooled in an ice-water bath. This is stirred at room temperature for 20 minutes, and water is added thereto. Then. this is extracted with ethyl acetate. After washed with water, the organic layer is dried, concentrated, purified through silica gel column chromatography (eluent: hexane/ethyl acetate=6/1), and finally recrystallized from ethyl acetate/hexane to obtain 1-(2,4-dichlorobenzyl)-5-methoxycarbonylindole (49) (6.59 g).
