The solution was then heated to 70° C. until no more gas (H2) evolved. The solution was cooled to room temperature and 5,10-dihydroindeno[1,2-b]indole (2.69 g, 13.1 mmol) dissolved in a minimum amount of DMSO was added. After stirring at room temperature for 1 hour, dimethyl sulphate (1.5 cm3, 15 mmol) was introduced, and stirring continued for a further 1 hour. Water (3 cm3) was cautiously added, and the reaction then poured into ice/water. The solid thus formed was collected by suction filtration, washed firstly with water, dried on the water pump, and then washed with petrol (60°-80° C.). Crystallization from ethanol yielded colourless needles of the title compound. Yield: 1.52 g (53%). M.p. 152° C. 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ: 3.55 (2H, s,), 3.85 (3H, s,), 6.8-7.4 (8H, m, arom.).
