Synthesis of 2-Indolyl-1-nitroalkane Derivatives Using Nanocrystalline Titanium(IV) Oxide.
2010
Abstract The catalytic Friedel–Crafts alkylation of indoles with nitroalkenes to furnish 2-indolyl-1-nitroalkane derivatives at room temperature with moderate to excellent yields is reported using nanocrystalline titanium(IV) oxide (nano-TiO2) catalyst. In all cases, a single regioisomer was obtained. After completion of the reaction, the catalyst was recovered by centrifugation and activated under a nitrogen flow for 1 h at 250°C for further reuse. The nano-TiO2 can be reused for four cycles with a slight decrease of activity under the same reaction conditions.
