Abstract

The reaction of indole derivatives bearing a 3-or 4-hydroxyalkyl chain with dimethylsulfoxide and oxalyl chloride under Swern conditions led to a one-pot, three-component process involving three different synthetic transformations, namely oxidation of indole to oxindole, introduction of a chlorine substituent at the oxindole C-3 position and substitution of the hydroxyl group in the side chain by chlorine, in good to excellent overall yields. The same ...
