Reaktionsschritte

0.851 g of propyl isocyanate is added to a suspension of 1.902 g of 5-methoxytryptamine in 4 cm3 of pyridine at +5° C. The mixture is stirred at room temperature for 2 hours and then the reaction medium is poured onto ice-water. The mixture is acidified slightly with a 1N hydrochloric acid solution. The resulting precipitate is isolated by filtration, washed with water, dried and then recrystallised in toluene, yielding 2.34 g (85%) of N-[2-(5-methoxyindol-3-yl)ethyl]-N'-propylurea.
