Abstract
Information is given on the synthesis and establishment of the structures of previously unreported 2-acetyl-3-bromoindoles formed by the action of bromine on 2-acetylindole-3-carboxylic acids. The reduction of the latter with sodium tetrahydroborate leads to the formation of 2-(1-hydroxyethyl)indole-3-carboxylic acids.
