Abstract

Isatin is a privileged framework in the drug development and drug design area. Trisindoline, an isatin derivative, acts as a lead compound for the development of α-glucosidase inhibitors. The presence of the bromo group at C5 position of isatin and halogens at the ortho- position of N-benzyl of indole have been reported to be pivotal for the inhibitory activity of α-glucosidase. This paper reports the synthesis of 5′-bromo-1,1″-bis(2-chlorobenzyl)-[3,3′:3′,3″-terindolin]-2′-one (1) by indole N-benzylation and electrophilic addition. Reaction of indole and 2-chlorobenzyl bromide in DMF afforded 2-chlorobenzyl indole. The subsequent reaction of this product with 5-bromoisatin in THF in presence of sulfuric acid yielded the title compound 1. The spectroscopic methods (FTIR, HRMS-ESI, 1H and 13C NMR) were utilized for structure identification of all compounds. The synthesis of compound 1 was successful and it was obtained in 75% yield.
