The cooled reaction mixture was diluted with water and thrice extracted with DCM. The combined organic layers were washed with water and brine, dried (Na2SO4), filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. The solid was suspended in hexane (100 mL) and ethyl acetate (5 mL) and filtered. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to afford 5.34 g (73%) of tert-butyl-5-(aminomethyl)-4-chloro-1H-indol-1-carboxylate (320) as a white solid: 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 7.97 (d, J=8.5 Hz, 1H), 7.73 (s, 1H), 7.50 (d, J=8.5 Hz, 1H), 6.71 (d, J=3.7 Hz, 1H), 2.09 (s, 2H), 1.63 (s, 9H); 2H not seen; MS (ESI) m/z=281.5 [M+1]+.
