A method is developed for the preparation of 4-(vic-triazol-1-yl)indoles that involves
replacement of the ortho-NO2 group in E-2,4,6-trinitrostilbenes by an azido group, condensation of E-2-azido-4,6-dinitrostilbenes with acetylacetone, replacement of the second ortho-NO2 group in the resulting stilbenes by N3, and subsequent thermolysis of the azide into the target indole. The reactions of E-2-azido-4,6-dinitrostilbenes with cyclohexane-1,3-dione gave E-20amino-4,6-dinitrostilbenes, which can be used for selective transformation of the ortho-NO2 group into an amino group in E-2,4,6-trinitrostilbenes.
