The Batcho-Leimgruber strategy was employed to synthesize 5-[ 2 H 3 ]-methoxy-1 H-indole 4 from commercially available 5-hydroxy-2-nitrotoluene 1 and CD 3 I. Compound 4 was treated with oxalyl chloride, dimethylamine and lithium aluminum hydride to yield 5-[ 2 H 3 ]-methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine 6.

Abstract
The Batcho–Leimgruber strategy was employed to synthesize 3‐(2‐dimethylamino‐[^2^H~4~]‐ethyl)‐1__H__‐indol‐5‐ol (bufotenine, 5‐HO‐DMT) (8) from commercial 3‐methyl‐4‐nitro‐phenol (1), benzyl bromide and N,N–dimethylformamide–dimethylacetal. Compound 4 was synthesized from compound 3 using the Batcho–Leimgruber strategy in the presence of Raney nickel and hydrazine hydrate. Compound 4 was treated with oxalyl chloride, dimethylamine and lithium aluminum [^2^H~4~]‐hydride to yield [2‐(5‐benzyloxy‐1__H__‐indol‐3‐yl)‐[^2^H~4~]‐ethyl]‐dimethyl‐amine (7). The benzyl ether in compound 7 was cleaved by hydrogenolysis to give bufotenine 8. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
