Chemistry of Heterocyclic Compounds Aims and scope

Abstract

The cleavage of Β-(indol-3-yl)ethyldimethylsulfonium iodide in aqueous caustic potash solution has given an oligomer of 3-vinylindole with a degree of polymerization of five. In ethanolic solutions in the presence of caustic potash, Ω-(indol-3-yl)alkyldimethylsulfonium iodides are converted into the corresponding ethers.
