Abstract
1-Methoxy-6-nitroindole-3-carbaldehyde is proved to be a versatile electrophile and reacts regioselectively at the 2-position with various types of nucleophiles providing 2,3,6-trisubstituted indole derivatives. The reaction is applicable for the preparation of a novel pyrimido[1,2-a]indole derivative.
