反応手順

NaH (60% dispersion in mineral oil) (0.9 g, 22.5 mmole) was added portionwise over 5 min to a solution of 2-chloro-1H-indole-3-carboxaldehyde (3.8 g, 21.2 mmole) and iodomethane (1.5 mL, 24 mmole) in DMF (50 mL) with stirring at 0° C. The reaction was allowed to warm to RT and stir for 4 h, then was concentrated under vacuum. The remaining residue was taken up in EtOAc, and the solution was washed with water then brine, dried (MgSO4), and concentrated to dryness. Trituration with 1:1 Et2O/petroleum ether, filtration, and drying under vacuum gave the title compound (3.10 g, 76%) as an off-white solid: 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 10.12 (s, 1 H), 8.29 (m, 1 H), 7.33 (m, 3 H), 3.81 (s, 3 H); MS (ES) m/e 194.0 (M+H)+.
