Abstract
Derivatives of 2-benzyl-5-methoxyindole-3-carboxylic acid are decarboxylated on heating and are converted to the corresponding 2-benzyl-5-methoxyindoles. 2-Benzyl-5-methoxygramine hydrochlorides were obtained from the latter and used to obtain (2-benzyl-5-methoxy-3-indolyl)acetonitriles. The nitriles were converted to 2-benzyl-5-methoxytryptamines by hydrogenation. A number of Mannich bases were obtained by aminomethylation of 2-benzyl-3-carbomethoxy-5-hydroxyindole derivatives.
