In this paper,n-phenylaniline and oxalyl chloride were used to prepare 1-phenylindole. The experimental conditions,such as material ratio,reaction time,the amount of catalyst and so on were investigated. The optimal conditions of the coupling reaction were found as:n(n-phenyl -aniline)∶n(oxalyl chloride)=1∶3,reaction temperature 20-25 ℃,reaction time 2.5 h,under which the yield of 1-(diphenylamino)-2-chloro-ethanedione was up to 98.02%based on n-phenyl-aniline and the purity was 97.68%as determined by HPLC. The best reaction conditions for preparing 1-phenyl isatin were found as:n(1-(diphenylamino)-2-chloro-ethanedione)∶n(Anhydrous AlCl3)=1∶3,reaction temperature 10 ℃, reaction time 2 h,under which the yield of 1-phenylisatin was 86.76% based on 1-(diphenylamino)-2-chloro-ethanedione and the purity was 98.45% as determined by HPLC. The reduction reaction conditions were optimized as:n(1-phenylisatin)∶n(sodium borohydride) = 1∶3,n(1-phenylisatin)∶n(zinc chloride)=1∶0.05,reaction temperature 110 ℃,reaction time 12 h,under which the yield of 1-phenylisatin was 72.41%based on 1-phenylisatin and the purity was 98.14%as determined by HPLC. The structures of the product were identified by 1H NMR,MS and Micro melting point instrument.
