Participants

Reaction Steps

4.3 g (20 mmol) 1,5-diacetyl-2-indolinone (Ex. II) are dissolved in 20 ml of dimethylformamide and 490 mg dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) and 6 ml triethylamine added and the mixture is cooled in the ice bath. 3.8 ml (22 mmol) octanoic acid chloride in 20 ml of dimethylformamide are added to this solution and the mixture is stirred for a further 10 min. Then the reaction mixture is added to 150 ml of methylene chloride and 150 ml 1 N hydrochloric acid. The organic phase is separated off, dried over sodium sulphate and concentrated by rotary evaporation. The residue is chromatographed through a silica gel column with methylene chloride/methanol 95:5.
