Following General Procedure D, ethyl3-formyl-2-isopropyl-1-(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)-1H-indole-6-carboxylate (Compound 36, 287 mg, 0.82 mmol) in t-BuOH (6 ml), 2-methyl-2-butene (2.29 ml) was added a solution of NaH2PO4 (1.97 g, 16.4mmol) and NaClO2 (80%, 1.48 g, 16.4 mmol) in H2O (6 ml). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 12 h. The reaction mixture was extracted with EtOAc (×3) and the combined organic layer was washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4, and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by chromatography on silica gel (0→50% EtOAc-hexanes) to yield the title compound as a light yellow solid.
