The resulting mixture was stirred for 10 minutes, and then tert-butyl-dimethylsilyl chloride (1.4 g, 9.47 mmol) was added to the mixture. The reaction mixture was warm to RT overnight and partitioned between H2O and EtOAc. The organic layer was separated, washed with brine, dried, filtered, concentrated, and purified via flash chromatography (hexane/EtOAc) affording 1-(tert-Butyl-dimethyl-silanyl)-4-chloro-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine as a clear oil (2.0 g, 62% yield).
