Amidomethylation of the benzene ring of indoles

  • Published:
Chemistry of Heterocyclic Compounds Aims and scope

Abstract

The benzene ring of indoles was amidomethylated by various agents in the presence of sulfuric acid. The amidomethylation of 2-methyl- and 2,3-dimethylindoles takes place in the 5 position. When there is a methyl or methoxy group in the 5 or 7 position, the substituent enters the 6 position. Hydrazinolysis or hydrolysis of the amidomethylation products gives 5- or 6-aminomethylindoles.
