Indole derivatives

The synthesis of-glycerides of 3-indolyl carboxylic acids has been effected by the reaction of 3-indolyl carboxylic acids with benzylideneglycerol in the presence of dicyclohexylcarbodiimide with the subsequent elimination of the benzylidene group by hydrogenolysis. The- and-glycerides have been separated by paper chromatography.For communication XXX, see [1].
