Benzoyl chloride → HCID 86659859, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 5-methoxyindoline (202 mg, 1.35 mmol) and N,N-diisopropylethylamine (0.34 mL, 2.0 mmol) in 4.0 mL of dry dichloromethane was added benzoyl chloride (0.23 mL, 2.0 mmol) at 0° C. After the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 h, the reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate. The solution was washed with saturated NaHCO3 aqueous solution, brine, and dried over MgSO4. After filtration, the filtrate was concentrated in vacuo, and the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (hexane/ethyl acetate=95/5 to 70/30) to obtain 5-methoxy-1-benzoylindoline (224 mg, 65%).
