Answer
![2-[(Z)-2-{(3E)-2-Chloro-3-[(2E)-2-(3,3-dimethyl-1-propyl-1,3-dihydro-2H-indol-2-ylidene)ethylidene]-1-cyclohexen-1-yl}vinyl]-3,3-dimethyl-1-propyl-3H-indolium iodide](https://static.chemtradehub.com/structs/207/207399-07-3-cf17.webp "2-[(Z)-2-{(3E)-2-Chloro-3-[(2E)-2-(3,3-dimethyl-1-propyl-1,3-dihydro-2H-indol-2-ylidene)ethylidene]-1-cyclohexen-1-yl}vinyl]-3,3-dimethyl-1-propyl-3H-indolium iodide")
This compound is usually synthesized via an indolium iodide precursor, followed by the condensation with a vinyl chloride derivative. The reaction is typically catalyzed by a Lewis acid like titanium tetrachloride, with high selectivity and yield of up to 90%.
