2-Methyl-2-butene → HCID 58306778, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of tert-butyl 5-bromo-6-chloro-7-formyl 1H-indole-1-carboxylic acid (2.9 g), sodium dihydrogen phosphate (2.0 g), 2-methyl-2-butene (2.6 g), water (10 mL), and 1,4-dioxane (30 mL) was added sodium chlorite (1.8 g) under ice-cooling. The reaction mixture was stirred under ice-cooling for 1 hour, and then at room temperature for 5 hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure, and ethyl acetate and water were added thereto, and a liquid-separation operation was carried out. The organic layer was washed with saturated brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and then evaporated under reduced pressure to obtain 5-bromo-1-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-6-chloro-1H-indole-7-carboxylic acid (3.1 g).
