Abstract
The indolylalkyl bromides I (R = Br; n = 2,3,4,10) were prepd. by Hunsdiecker bromination-decarboxylation
 of the Hg salts of I (R = CO2H).  Alternately, I (R = Br; n = 3,4) were prepd. by reaction of I (R = HO)
with PBr3 in Et2O. 


Hunsdiecker Reaction
Preparation of aklyl halogenides from carboxylic acids.
HgO or Ag2O is used as catalyst. The reaction is via a radical mechanism and must be lightened.
