13. 4), filtered and evaporated. The residue was usually essentially pure indole or imidazole. Additional purification, if necessary, was then carried out by standard means (crystallisation, chromatography etc.). All N-tosyl derivatives and the corresponding free indoles or imidazoles were identified by comparisons with authentic materials.
