A practical procedure suitable for large scale lithiation of N-tosylindoles and subsequent addition to ketones is described. Bis(N,N'-dimethylaminoethyl) ether was found to stabilize 2-lithio-N-tosylindole 1A at -25 degrees C [The temperatures cited are internal temperatures unless otherwise stated]. Addition of this reagent allows the lithiation of N-tosyl indoles and subsequent addition to ketones to operate at -25 degrees C, a temperature suitable for large scale reactions.
