LITHIATION OF 1-ALKOXYINDOLE DERIVATIVES

Lithiation of 1-alkoxyindoles, 3-dimethylaminomethyl- and 3-dimethylaminoethyl-1-methoxyindole occurred regioselectively at the 2-position. The introduction of a sterically bulky group into the 2-position of 3-dimethylaminomethyl-1-methoxyindoles directed the lithiation to the 4-position.
