Abstract

Since its introduction some 20 years ago, the Leimgruber-Batcho indole synthesis has enjoyed great success in the preparation of ring A substituted indoles.'. 2 In general, the reaction involves condensation of the appropriate o-nitrotoluene 1 with dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal (DMFDMA) to afford the anticipated P-dimethylamino-2-nitrostyrene 2. Conversion of the intermediate nitroenamine into the indole 3 requires selective reduction ...
