Uses | Indole -4-carboxylic acid methyl ester is an indole derivative and is a very important class of heterocyclic compounds that can be used to prepare fragrances, biological enzymes, hormones and other bioactive molecules. |
synthesis method | under room temperature stirring state, concentrated sulfuric acid (0.5mL) is slowly added into indole formic acid solution in methanol (10mL), the obtained mixture is stirred and reacted at 80 degrees for 2-3 hours, the reaction progress is monitored by TLC, and the raw materials are completely reacted, slowly add a large amount of ice water to the mixture to quench the reaction, neutralize the mixture with a saturated solution of sodium carbonate, extract it three times with ethyl acetate, dry the combined ethyl acetate solution with anhydrous magnesium sulfate , The obtained organic layer is evaporated and dried under vacuum and the residue is subjected to rapid chromatography (petroleum ether/AcOEt) to obtain the target product indole -4-carboxylate methyl ester.
