To the best of our knowledge, anodic oxidation at the α position of the C-3 of the indole nucleus has never been reported; only a few reports are concerned with oxidation of simple indolic compounds (see for example: a) K. Yoshida, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 1977, 99, 6111. b) A. Berlin, A. Canavesi, G. Schiavon, S. Zecchin, G. Zotti, Tetrahedron, 1996, 52, 7947).
