Procedure
To a solution of 7-(dibenzylamino)-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-c]pyridine-2-carboxaldehyde (Example 141) (1.7 g, 5.1 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (25 mL) was added 3.0 M phenylmagnesium bromide in Et2O (2.0 mL, 6 mmol) dropwise at −78° C. under a nitrogen atmosphere. After stirring for ca. 2 h, additional 3.0 M phenylmagnesium bromide in Et2O (2.0 mL, 6 mmol) was added. The reaction mixture was stirred for another 1.5 h warming to −15° C. The reaction mixture was poured into a saturated ammonium chloride solution, and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×). The combined organic extracts were washed with saturated sodium chloride, and dried over sodium sulfate. Filtration and concentration provided the crude material, which was purified by Biotage chromatography (10-30% ethyl acetate in hexanes) to provide [7-(dibenzylamino)-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-c]pyridin-2-yl](phenyl)methanol (1.32 g, 62%) as a yellow foam: mp 53-61° C.; 1H NMR (500 MHz, CD3OD) δ4.60 (4H, q, J=23.2, 15.4 Hz), 5.95 (1H, s), 6.25 (1H, s), 7.05 (1H, d, J=5.7 Hz), 7.15-7.40 (15H, m), 7.62 (1H, d, J=5.7 Hz); ESI MS m/z 420 [C28H25N3O+H]+; HPLC (Method A) >99% (AUC), tR=19.2 min.
