In acid‐catalyzed reactions with 3‐unsubstituted indoles 1 , 2‐alkoxy‐1,3‐dioxolanes 2a‐c behave as acyl equivalents. Depending on the substitution patterns of the reaction partners, the 1,3‐dioxolanium ions 3a‐c , generated in situ from the cyclic ortho esters by the action of sulfosalicylic acid, react to form tris‐(3‐indolyl)alkanes 6 and 9 , bis‐(3‐indolyl)ethenes 7 , or 3‐benzoylindoles 8 . Analogous reactivity was observed with related acyclic ortho esters.
