A convenient iodination of indoles and derivatives
摘要:
We report a direct iodination of indole and derivative compounds with iodine monochloride (ICI) in the presence of Celite (R). This procedure has now been extended to the iodination of substituted indoles, azaindoles and pyrroles. The scope of this procedure is exemplified by the iodination of melatonin in 98% yield.
