16. 3); relaxation delay = 5 s; power level = 40 L; irradiation time = 8 sec) for 7a are shown below. The analytical and physical data of 7a are different from those of an authentic specimen of the isomeric N-trifluoroacetyl-3-(p-acetyl)phenyl indole. It may also be worth reporting that 1-(o-trifluoroacetamidophenyl)-2-aryl-1-ethanones 15, most probably derived from the hydrolysis of 7, were in some cases isolated (Table 2, entries 1 and 2).
