Abstract
Article history: Received November 21, 2018 Received in revised form November 21, 2018 Accepted December 28, 2018 Available online December 28, 2018 Pentyl 2-(1H-indole-2-carboxamido)benzoate (5) is obtained in good yield as stable crystals by reaction of pentyl 2-amino benzoate (6) with indole-2-carbonyl chloride acid (7) in the presence of pyridine. The crystal structure of 5 confirms the presence of intramolecular hydrogen bonding (N-H...O) which produces a six-membered ring, and the molecules are linked together by intermolecular hydrogen forces (N-H...O). © 2019 by the authors; licensee Growing Science, Canada.
