title: A study of the reaction of N-chlorosuccinimide with indoles and its analytical application.
abstract: The reaction of N-chlorosuccinimide with indole and few of its derivatives in acid medium has been studied. The purified products have been identified by TLC, elemental analysis and infrared studies, and a reaction mechanism is proposed on the basis of the results. The reaction proceeds smoothly and consistently, and can be used for microdetennination of indole and its derivatives.
