Iodination of 4,6-Dimethoxyindole Derivatives
Main Article Content
Abstract
In this research, the iodination of 4,6-dimethoxyindole derivatives with N-iodosuccinimide in dichloromethane at 0 oC and room temperature were studies. The iodination of 4,6-dimethoxy-2,3-diphenylindole without substituents at C5 and C7 position and 3-(4-bromophenyl)-4,6-dimethoxyindole without substituents at C2, C5 and C7 position gave 7-iodoindole derivatives which is substited product with iodine atom at C7 position. In the case of iodination of 7-formyl-4,6-dimethoxy-2,3-diphenylindole without substituents at C5 was not found 5-iodoindole product. Moreover, the iodination of 4,6-dimethoxyindole without substituents at C2, C3, C5 and C7 was not found iodoindole product. Finally, the results of selective substitution products of iodination are similar to chlorinations and brominations but the chemical yield of iodination products are less than those of chlorination and bromination products.
