Reaction Steps

To a cooled (4° C.) and stirred solution of 6-nitroindoline (3.04 g) in a mixture of glacial acetic acid (22 ml), water (11 ml) and absolute ethanol (23 ml) was added solid cyanogen bromide (2.93 g) followed by 1N aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (25 ml) over 3 minutes. The mixture was then allowed to warm to room temperature, stirred for a further 21 hours and the solid formed was collected by filtration, washed with water and dried over phosphorous pentoxide to give the title compound (2.94 g) as a solid; δH (250 MHz, DMSO-d6) 7.90 (1H, dd, J=8.1 and 2.2 Hz), 7.55-7.50 (2H, m), 4.23 (2H, t, J=8.4 Hz), 3.30 (2H, t, J=8.4 Hz); m/z (CI) 189 (M-).
