Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of (RS)-2-(n-pentadecyl)indoline-6-carboxylic acid (3.0 g) in ethanol (30 ml), was treated with a saturated solution of hydrogen chloride gas in ethanol (50 ml of strength 34% w/v). Anhydrous diethyl ether was then added to the mixture until a solid separated. The solid was collected and was washed with diethyl ether (2×100 ml) to give (RS)-2-(n-pentadecyl)indoline-6-carboxylic acid hydrochloride (2.7 g), in the form of a colourless solid, m.p. 230°-240° C. (with decomposition).
