Preparing indoles and intermediates therefor by reacting an N-haloaniline with a .beta.-carbonylic hydrocarbon sulfide to form an azasulfonium halide, reacting the azasulfonium halide with a strong base to form a thio-ether indole derivative, and then reducing the thio-ether indole, e.g. with Raney nickel, to form the indole compound. When an acetal or ketal of the .beta.-carbonyl hydrocarbon sulfide is used, the azasulfonium salt is treated with a base, and then with an acid to form the thio-ether indole derivative. When an .alpha.-ethyl-.beta.-carbonylic hydrocarbon sulfide is used, the resulting azosulfonium salt reacts with strong base to form a thio-ether indolenine derivative, which on reduction with Raney nickel or complex metal hydrides yields 3-substituted indoles. The aniline may be an aminopyridine to form an aza-indole compound in the process. The azasulfonium salts and thio-ether indole or thio-ether indolenine derivatives can be isolated and recovered from their respective reaction mixtures. The thio-ether-indole and thio-ether indolenine derivatives are useful as intermediates to make the indoles without the thio-ether group. The indoles are known compounds having a wide variety of uses, e.g., in making perfumes, dyes, amino acids, pharmaceuticals, agricultural chemicals and the like. The present application is particularly directed to alpha-methylthio-alpha-(2-aminophenyl) acetaldehyde diloweralkyl acetals.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION More specifically, this invention provides an improved process for making azasulfonium salt intermediates which are useful for making indoles which are known and which have a wide variety of known uses.
According to the process of this invention, a primary or secondary aniline or amino-pyridine starting material, both being referred to hereinafter as an aniline, is first reacted with a source of positive halogen to prepare the N-haloaniline.
Many sources of positive halogen are known and can be used to form the N-haloanilines.
Examples of positive halogen sources for this reaction include tert-butyl hypochlorite, N-chloro-succinimide, calcium hypochlorite, sodium hypochlorite, sodium hypobromite, and the like.
The N-chloro anilines are preferred for reasons of availability of reactants to make them and cost of materials, but other positive halogen compounds can be used to make useful N-haloanilines for use in this process.
The essential features of the process comprise: (a) reacting under substantially anhydrous conditions in an organic diluent at a temperature ranging from the Dry-Ice/acetone mixture temperatures (about -78.
degree.
C) to about 20.
degree.

and is in a position ortho, meta or para relative to the --N(R)A group; each of Y and Z is hydrogen or is a substitutent which does not donate electrons more strongly than m-methoxy, m-hydroxy, or a p-acetoxy group, and not more than one of Y and Z, as a substituent, is ortho to the --N(R)A group position on the ring; the --N(R)A group position on the ring having at least one ring carbon atom ortho thereto in an unsubstituted state; with a .
