Procedure

In a 2 L, 3-necked, round-bottomed flask under nitrogen atmosphere were placed ethyl 2-(7-hydroxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrocyclopenta[b]indol-3-yl)acetate (55.85 g, 215 mmol), cesium carbonate (84.2 g, 258 mmol), 4-(chloromethyl)-1-cyclopentyl-2-(trifluoromethyl)benzene (68 g, 259 mmol) in DMA (670 mL). The mixture was stirred for 15 minutes at room temperature and heated at 50° C. overnight. The mixture was cooled down to room temperature and filtered. The filtrate was concentrated under vacuum. Hexanes (400 mL) were added and the mixture was heated to 40° C. to give a dark solution. The solution was cooled down to room temperature over the weekend. The mixture was concentrated in vacuo and dried under vacuum to give the title compound (129.7 g). LCMS m/z=486.2.
