Abstract

The synthesis of 1,2-disubstituted-3-thioindoles was performed by the Madelung reaction from available starting compounds – benzylsulfides. Under the found conditions [0.2 M benzylsulfide solution in THF, 2 eq LDA], 1,2-disubstituted-3-thioindoles with electron-donor and electron-acceptor substituents at the 5 and 6 positions, as well as with aromatic and aliphatic substituents at the sulfur were obtained. The products were obtained in high yields (from 62 to 93%).
