I[C:2]1[CH:3]=[C:4]2[C:8](=[CH:9][CH:10]=1)[NH:7][CH:6]=[CH:5]2.[C-:11]#[N:12].[Na+]>CC#N.CCOC(C)=O.[Cu]I>[C:11]([C:2]1[CH:3]=[C:4]2[C:8](=[CH:9][CH:10]=1)[NH:7][CH:6]=[CH:5]2)#[N:12]A mixture of 5-iodoindole (0.36 g; 1.48 mmol), NaCN (0.15 g; 3 mmol), Pd(Ph3)4 (0.23 g; 0.22 mmol) and CuI (0.06 g; 0.3 mmol) in anhydrous CH3CN (3 ml) was refluxed for 2.5 h under N2. After cooling to room temperature, the mixture was diluted to 20 ml with EtOAc and filtered through a pad of Celite. The filtrate was washed with H2O, brine, dried over anhydrous MgSO4 and filtered. The filtrate was evaporated to dryness under reduced pressure, dissolved in a small volume of CH2Cl2 and filtered through a small pad of SiO2, which was washed with fresh CH2Cl2. The combined filtrates were evaporated to dryness under reduced pressure to give the title compound (0.2 g; 95%) as colourless solid. 1H-NMR (CDCl3) 6.62 (tr, 1H, J=2.5 Hz); 7.33 (tr, 1H, J=2.5 Hz); 7.39-7.47 (m, 2H); 7.98 (s, 1H); 8.51 (broad s, 1H).
