实施例1
本实施例提供了一种(E)-4-(2-(5-甲氧基-1H-吲哚-3-)乙烯基)-1-正十二烷基喹啉碘盐的合成:

1H NMR(400MHz,DMSO-d6),δ(ppm):12.11(s,1H),9.12(d,J=4.0Hz,1H),8.97(d,J=8.0Hz,1H),8.63(d,J=16.0Hz,1H),8.44(m,3H),8.18(t,J=8.0Hz,1H),7.99(m,2H),7.70(s,1H),7.42(d,J=8.0Hz,1H),6.90(dd,J=4.0,8.0Hz,1H),4.85(t,J=8.0Hz,2H),3.90(s,3H),1.91(m,2H),1.37(m,2H), 1.21(m,16H),0.83(t,J=8.0Hz,3H)。13C NMR(400MHz,DMSO-d6),δ(ppm):155.71,154.17,146.15,139.13,138.31,135.12,132.60,132.44,128.80,127.28,126.96,126.15,119.29,115.08,113.87,113.81,112.95,112.80,102.69,56.18,56.07,31.76,29.66,29.47,29.36,29.33,29.18,28.98,26.27,22.57,14.43。HRMS:calculated469.32,found 469.32。
