Summary
-
1.
We were the first to study the halogenation of vinylindole. Chlorination of the compound yields diindolyl-N, N'-(α,α'-dichloro)butane.
-
2.
The product formed in the first stage of the bromination of vinylindole is 1-(α,β -dibromo)ethylindole, while 1-(α,β,β-tribromo)ethylindole is obtained when excess bromine is used.
