To a suspension of 10 g of 3-(4-oxo-4,5,6,7,tetrahydro-1H-indol-3-yl-propionic acid (48 mmol) in 60 mL of dichloromethane was added 9.3 g (57.6 mmol) of carbonyldiimidazole. After stirring at room temperature for 2 hours, 5.3 mL (48 mmol) of 1-methylpiperazine and 8.4 mL (48 mmol) of N,N-diisopropylethylamine were added. The dark red reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. The reaction was poured into water and the organic layer washed with brine, dried and concentrated to give 8 g (57% yield) of 3-[3-(4-methyl-piperazin-1-yl)-3-oxo-propyl]-1,5,6,7-tetrahydro-indol-4-one. 1H-NMR (360 MHz, dimethylsulfoxide-d6) δ 10.97 (br s, 1H, NH), 6.47 (d, 1H), 3.43 (m, 4H, 2×CH2), 2.67–2.75 (m, 4H, 2×CH2), 2.51 (m, 2H, CH2), 2.27 (m, 2H, CH2), 2.20 (m, 4H, 2×CH2), 2.15 (s, 3H, CH3), 1.97 (m, 2H, CH2).
