Procedure

25.8 G. (0.1-mole) of sodium p-methoxyphenyl-hydrazine-sulphonate monohydrate are dissolved in a mixture of 112 ml of water and 48 ml of tert. butanol, then 17.4 g. (0.1 mole) of 5-nitro-furan-2-carboxylic acid chloride are poured into the solution, and the mixture is stirred for an hour at room temperature and consecutively for another hour on a water-bath of 70°-80°C. Subsequently, without isolating the product, 17 ml of levulinic acid and 4.5 ml of concentrated sulphuric acid are added dropwise, the mixture is stirred at 80°-85°C for an hour, cooled and 80 ml of water are added. The precipitated 1-(5-nitro-2-furoyl)-2-methyl-5-methoxy-indole-3-yl acetic acid is filtered by suction, and washed consecutively with 80 ml of 60% acetic acid and 100 ml of water. The crude product is recrystallized from 170 ml of 88% tert. butanol, clarified with 5% of active carbon "Norit", recrystallized on cooling, filtered by suction, washed with 20 ml of 88% tert. butanol, and dried to afford 17.7 g. of 1-(5-nitro-2-furoyl)-2-methyl-5-methoxy-indole-3-yl acetic acid. Yield 73.5%, m.p. 178°-180°C.
