TERT-BUTYL 3-FORMYL-1H-INDOLE-1-CARBOXYLATE Usage And Synthesis

Uses

3-Formylindole-1-carboxylic acid t-butyl ester is a carboxylic acid ester derivative that can be used as an intermediate in organic synthesis.

Synthesis

GENERAL METHOD: 3-indolecarboxaldehyde, triethylamine (1.3 eq.) and 10 mol% DMAP were dissolved in dichloromethane and di-tert-butyl dicarbonate (1.2 eq.) was added slowly. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature until complete consumption of the ingredients was shown by thin layer chromatography (TLC) monitoring. Upon completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture was diluted with dichloromethane and subsequently washed with water. The organic layer was separated, washed with saturated brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude product was purified by fast column chromatography (eluent ratio: ethyl acetate/hexane = 1:5 for 1a and 1b; ethyl acetate/hexane = 1:9 for 1c) to afford the target compounds tert-butyl 3-formyl-1H-indole-1-carboxylate (1a-1c).
