Abstract

Abstract A simple, efficient, and facile synthetic route for the preparation of indole-2- carboxylic esters was described. The cascade reactions of 2-bromobenzaldehyde and glycine ester hydrochloride were promoted by Cu 2 O and a base to provide the corresponding products in good yields. Commercially available, inexpensive substrates and reagents were employed under mild reaction conditions in this one-pot operation, which is ...
