Procedure
The title compound was prepared according to General Method 2. 2,3,4,5-Tetrahydro-2-methyl-5-phenethyl-1H-pyrido[4,3-b]indole was prepared from 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-2-methyl-1H-pyrido[4,3-b]indole (200 mg, 1.07), styrene (1.23 mL mmol, 10.65) and NaH (250 mg, 6.25 mmol) in DMF (6 ml) at 200° C. for 16 h to obtain 15 mg of 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-2-methyl-5-phenethyl-1H-pyrido[4,3-b]indole after purification.
