Reaktionsschritte

6.6 g of glutaric acid were added to 8.70 g of N-methyl-tryptamine (i.e., 3-(2-methylaminoethyl)-indole), and the mixture was heated at 150° C. under reduced pressure for 2 hours. After the reaction was completed, the product was recrystallized from a mixture of ethyl acetate and n-hexane. 10.8 g of N-methyl-N-(4-carboxybutyryl)-tryptamine (i.e., 3-[2-(N-methyl-4-carboxybutanamido)ethyl]-indole) were thereby obtained. M.p. 125°-126° C. Yield: 75.0%
