Abstract
The corresponding 2-bromomethyl derivatives of benzofuran and indole were obtained by bromination of 2-methyl-3-carbethoxy-5-methoxybenzofuran and 1,2-dimethyl-3-earbethoxy-5-methoxyindole with N-bromosuccinimide. A number of alkyl(aryl)thiomethyl and dialkylaminomethyl derivatives were obtained by reaction of the 2-bromomethyl derivatives with nucleophilic reagents.
