Procedure
A mixture of sodium chlorite (3.39 g) and sodium dihydrogen orthophosphate (4.54 g) in water (50 ml) was added dropwise to a stirred solution of ethyl 3-formyl-N-(3,4-dichlorobenzyl)indole-2-carboxylate (1.56 g) and 2-methylbut-2-ene (50 ml) in tert-butyl alcohol (100 ml) at ambient temperature and reaction stirred vigorously overnight. The reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo and the residue dissolved in dichloromethane (100 ml), washed with water (100 ml), dried (MgSO4) and concentrated in vacuo to give the product as a yellow solid (1.50 g, 92%); NMR d (CD3SOCD3) 1.20 (t, 3H), 4.30 (q, 2H), 5.50 (s, 2H), 7.00 (m, 1H), 7.25 (m, 2H), 7.42 (m, 1H), 7.58 (m, 2H), 8.00 (m, 1H), 12.68 (s, 1H); M/z (−) 390.4 (M−H+).
