NEW APPLICATION OF THE USE OF POTASSIUM ALCOHOLATES IN THE SYNTHESIS OF SUBSTITUTED INDOLES

Abstract
The method of closing the pyrrole ring for the formation of an indole from a toluidide by means of potassium alcoholates as condensing agents has been extended to the preparation of indoles substituted in any or all of the positions in the pyrrole ring. 1-Methyl-, 3-methyl-, 2,3-dimethyl- and 1,2,3-trimethylindole have been prepared by this method.
