Reaction Steps

A mixture of 3-benzyl-2-indolecarbaldehyde (7.06 g), ammonium acetate (462 mg) and nitromethane (10.5 ml) in methanol (30 ml) was refluxed for 2 hours. After cooling, precipitates formed were collected and washed two times with chilled methanol (5 ml) to give 3-benzyl-2-(2-nitrovinyl)indole.
