Procedure
To a solution of methyl 1-(2-chlorobenzyl)-2-propylindole-6-carboxylate (200 mg) in trifluoroacetic acid (2 ml) was added concentrated nitric acid (0.3 ml) at 0° C. After stirred at 0° C. for 30 minutes, the reaction mixture was partitioned between ethyl acetate and water. The organic layer was washed with aqueous sodium bicarbonate, water and brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, and evaporated in vacuo. The residue was purified by preparative thin layer chromatography on silica gel eluting with a mixture of ethyl acetate and hexane (1:3) to give methyl 1-(2-chlorobenzyl)-3-nitro-2-propylindole-6-carboxylate (73 mg) as pale yellow crystals.
