The mixture was refluxed with stirring for 4 hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated to give a residue. To the residue, water (10 mL) was added and the mixture was extracted with dichloromethane (20 mL×3). The organic phase was concentrated to give crude product 2-methyl-1-(1-phenylethyl)-1H-indole-3-carboxylic acid (150 mg). LRMS (M−H)− m/z: calcd 279.13. found 279.
