Paragraph 0041-0044; 0136-0139, (2018/08/28)
The invention relates to a synthetic indole - 3 - formaldehyde compounds, which belongs to the technical field of organic synthesis. The invention will be indole compound, hexamethylene tetramine, crystalline aluminum trichloride, N, N - dimethyl formamide in proportion in 120 °C reaction under the condition of 1 - 20 the H, then filtered, washing, filtering, concentrating, column chromatography purification and other after-treatment technology, make the refined indole - 3 - formaldehyde compound. The invention overcomes the indole - 3 - benzaldehyde compound of preparation need to use not stabilized peroxide, and for a long time under the high temperature reaction of the defect. And the invention uses the advantages of simple equipment, product yield is high, the resulting yield of a target product can be up to 94%. In addition, the invention relates to a low reaction conditions, less catalyst levels, low energy consumption, the post treatment process is simple and easy to use, without the need of using a high dosage of acid or alkali, post-processing the solvent can be recovered and recycled, industrial "three wastes" is discharged little, suitable for large-scale production.

An efficient iron-catalyzed C3-selective formylation of free (N-H) or N-substituted indoles was developed by employing formaldehyde and aqueous ammonia, with air as the oxidant. This new method gave 3-formylindoles in moderate to excellent yields with fairly short reaction times. Moreover, this procedure for catalytic formylation of indoles can be applied to gram-scale syntheses.

Because of the importance of the indole framework and the versatile transformation of nitro and formyl groups, the efficient synthesis of optically pure 2-alkyl-3-(1H-indol-3-yl)-4-nitrobutanals, one type of tryptamine precursors are of great interest for pharmaceutical and biological research. Herein, the Michael addition of aliphatic aldehydes to indolylnitroalkenes has been developed using (S)-diphenylprolinol trimethylsilyl ether as an organocatalyst, which provides the desired optically pure syn 2-alkyl-3-(1H-indol-3-yl)-4-nitrobutanal derivatives in up to 98% yield with up to >99:1 dr and >99% ee. To show the synthetic usefulness of this methodology, optically active 2-alkyl-4-nitro-3-(1-tosyl-1H-indol-3-yl)butan-1- ol and tryptamine derivatives are readily obtained by stepwise systematic transformations.
