What is 5-METHOXY-2-METHYLINDOLE?

Description

5-methoxy-2-methylindole is a useful organic raw material. It can be used as the reactant in the preparation of indolylquinoxalines by condensation reactions, in preparation of alkylindoles via Ir-catalyzed reductive alkylation, in arylation reactions in the presence of a palladium acetate catalyst, in enantioselective Friedel-Crafts alkylation, as well as in stereo selective synthesis of cyclopentaindolones via stereoselective [3+2] cyclopentannulation. It is also employed in inhibiting the chlorinating activity of myeloperoxidase (MPO) and in the metabolic synthesis of acrylacetic acid anti-inflammatory synthesis.
