Hydrochloric Acid → HCID 20262412, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred mixture of 100 parts of pyridine, 53 parts of 5-fluoro-1H-indole and 270 parts of benzene were added dropwise 57 parts of benzoyl chloride. Upon completion, stirring was continued overnight at room temperature. The reaction mixture was poured onto a dilute hydrochloric acid solution and the layers were separated. The organic phase was dried, filtered and evaporated. The residue was purified twice by column-chromatography over silica gel using a mixture of trichloromethane and methanol (95:5 by volume) as eluent. The pure fractions were collected and the eluent was evaporated, yielding 80 parts of 1-benzoyl-4-(5-fluoro-1H-indol-3-yl)-1,4-dihydropyridine as a residue (intermediate 19).
