Hydrochloric Acid → HCID 13787417, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

250 ml of a solution of potassium hydroxide in ethanol at 10 g per 100 ml were added to a suspension of 25 g of N-[2-[(4-methylphenyl)sulfonyloxy]phenyl]-1H-indol-4-carboxamide in 50 ml of ethanol at 95° C. with stirring under an inert atmosphere and the mixture was stirred for 21 hours. 1 liter of iced water was added, and the mixture was acidified with a concentrated aqueous solution of hydrochloric acid, followed by stirring for a further 15 minutes, filtering, drying and triturating at reflux in 1.5 liters of methylene chloride. After concentrating to about 300 ml, filtering and drying at 80° C. under reduced pressure, 13 g of N-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-1H-indol-4-carboxamide melting at ≃208° C. were obtained.
