Hydrochloric Acid → 3-(2,4-Dichlorobenzyl)-5-(1-pentanesulfonylcarbamoyl)indole

Participants

Reaction Steps

N,N′-Carbonyldiimidazole (0.282 g) is added to an N,N-dimethylformamide (4.3 ml) solution of 5-carboxy-3-(2,4-dichlorobenzyl)indole (0.429 g), and stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. Diazabicycloundecene (0.306 g) and 1-pentanesulfonamide (0.304 g) are added thereto, and stirred at 100° C. for 40 hours. The reaction mixture is cooled, and then made acidic with water and 1M HCl added thereto. Then, the gummy residue formed is collected. This is dissolved in ethyl acetate, washed with water, and died. The solvent is evaporated away, and the resulting residue is crystallized from ether. The crystal formed is collected and dried to obtain 3-(2,4-dichlorobenzyl)-5-(1-pentanesulfonylcarbamoyl)indole (88) (0.258 g).
