反応手順

To a suspension of sodium hydride (1.31 g, 80% suspension in mineral oil, 43.8 mM) in 65 ml of tetrahydrofuran (THF), cooled in an ice bath, is added dropwise a solution of 4-benzyloxyindole-3-carboxaldehyde (10.2 g, 39.8 mM) in 55 ml of THF. The mixture is stirred in the cooling bath for an additional 30 minutes; N-methyl-N-phenethyl-2-bromoacetamide (15.3 g, 59.7 mM) is then added. The resulting mixture is stirred at room temperature for 18 hours. Ethyl acetate and 50% brine is added and the layers are separated. The organic layer is washed with brine, dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo to give crude product as a beige oil. Purification on preparative HPLC (silica gel column, 20% ethyl acetate in methylene chloride) gives N-methyl-N-phenethyl-2-(4-benzyloxy-3-formylindol-1-yl)acetamide. (m.p. 120°-122° C.)
