Reaction Conditions:

with zinc(II) chloride in dichloromethane at -10 - 5; for 2 h;Temperature;

Steps:

1-4 The preparation of 3- (4-chlorobutyl) indole-5-carbonitrile (Compound I) is as follows
Compound 1 (142.2g, 1.0mol) was dissolved in dichloromethane (1.5L), the internal temperature was controlled at 0-5 ° C, and anhydrous zinc chloride (150g, 1.1mol) was added.After the addition was completed, the temperature was lowered to about -10 ° C, and 1-bromo-4-chlorobutane (Compound 3) (188.6g, 1.1mol) was added dropwise.After the dropwise addition was completed, the temperature was raised to a reaction temperature of 0 ° C and the reaction was conducted for 2 hours.After the reaction was completed, dichloromethane (0.5 L) was diluted, and ice water (1 L) was destroyed. Subsequently, 1 N sodium hydroxide solution was added to neutralize to adjust pH = 7, and extraction and liquid separation were performed.The organic phase was washed with saturated brine (0.5 L) and separated.After the organic phase was concentrated to dryness, the residue was recrystallized from isopropyl acetate (0.5 L),205 g of the product (I) was obtained, the yield was 88%, and the HPLC purity was 99.62%.
