β¦ Synopsis
The synthesis and use of 2-(2-aminophenyl)-acetaldehydedimethyl acetal 1 are described, The amides 2, derived from this amine and carboxylicacids, are stable under basic conditions and thus can be regardedas the protectedcarboxylicacids. The correspondingcarboxylicacids are regeneratedby conversion of 2 into indolybunides3 by treatment with CSA and subsequent hydrolysis with LiOOH or NaOH. In addition,3 can be easily convertedto esters, amides,and aldehydes.

The title reagent reacts with 7 and 6 lactones to provide hydroxy amides which can be easily converted into protected N-acyl indoles. Mild saponification provides indole and the protected hydroxy acid. Several years ago, Weinreb et reported1 a mild method for the conversion of esters into amides.
