Abstract

Abstract The bis (phenylhydrazone) of substituted diphenacyl sulfides (= 1, 1′-[thiobis (methylene)] bis [arylmethanone] bis (2-phenylhydrazones)) 1 underwent a tandem sequence of reactions upon treatment with Vilsmeier reagent, ultimately yielding 3- aroylindoles (= aryl (1H-indol-3-yl) methanones) 3 (Scheme 1 and Table 1). The reaction seems to be product selective depending upon the reaction temperature.
