The reaction mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature and stirred for 2 h. The reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo to dryness. The residue was diluted with water and ethyl acetate. The organic layer was separated and dried, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. The crude product was purified by silica gel chromatography (eluent: 8% EtOAC in pet. ether) to afford methyl 5-bromo-1-methyl-3-(1-methylethyl)-1H-indole-7-carboxylate (10.58 g, 64%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ ppm 1.23 (d, 6H, J=6.4 Hz), 3.10-3.19 (m, 1H), 3.74 (s, 3H), 3.92 (s, 3H), 7.22 (s, 1H), 7.58 (s, 1H), 7.95 (s, 1H).
