Reaktionsschritte

A mixture containing methyl 1-chloro-5H-pyrido[4,3-b]indole-4-carboxylate and LiNH2 (prepared in situ from ammonia and n-BuLi; 1.0 M in THF; 3.5 equiv) in THF (0.09 M) was heated in a microwave reactor at 100° C. for 1 min in a sealed tube. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and partitioned between EtOAc and saturated NaHCO3. After separation of the organic phase, the aqueous phase was extracted again with EtOAc, and the combined organic phases were washed with brine, dried over MgSO4 and filtered. After evaporation of the organic solvent, the residue was purified by flash chromatography (10-70% EtOAc in hexanes) to provide the title compound as a white solid.
