Reaction Steps

6-Nitro-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrocarbazole (5.04 g) prepared by the method described in Journal of Chemical Society, p.833 (1924) was dissolved in 50 mL of acetone, and the solution was added with 2.25 g of potassium hydroxide and 8.45 g of isopropyl iodide, warmed to 50° C., and stirred for 3 hours. Water was added to the reaction mixture, and the deposited precipitates were collected to obtain 2.60 g of N-isopropyl-6-nitro-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrocarbazole.
