  • Published:
Chemistry of Heterocyclic Compounds Aims and scope

Abstract

The reaction of indole with acetylene under pressure is investigated. It is shown that under the action of KOH in aqueous dioxane at 220° C, N-vinylindole C10H9N is formed in 66% yield, and that this compound undergoes free radical and cationic polymerization.
