Triethylamine → tert-Butyl 6-{2-[(methylsulfonyl)oxy]ethyl}-1,4,5,6-tetrahydroazepino[4,5-b]indole-3(2H)-carboxylate

tert-Butyl 6-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1,4,5,6-tetrahydroazepino[4,5-b]indole-3(2H)-carboxylate (0.181 g, 0.549 mmol) and triethylamine (0.115 mL, 0.0833 g, 0.824 mmol, 1.5 equiv.) were dissolved in CH2Cl2 at −10° C. under N2. MsCl (0.0510 mL, 0.0755 g, 0.659 mmol, 1.2 equiv.) was added and the reaction mixture was stirred for 30 min. The reaction mixture was taken up in EtOAc (25 mL) and was washed sequentially with 10% citric acid (10 mL), 5% NaHCO3 (10 mL), and brine (10 mL). The organic layer was dried over MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated. The crude tert-butyl 6-{2-[(methylsulfonyl)oxy]ethyl}-1,4,5,6-tetrahydroazepino[4,5-b]indole-3(2H)-carboxylate was used directly in the next reaction.
