To a mixture of indole (234 mg, 2.0 mmol), DBC (726 mg, 3.0 mmol), DABCO (67.2 mg, 0.6 mmol) and TBAC (556 mg, 2.0 mmol) is added DMA (4 mL). The resulting solution is heated at 135° C. for 2 h. The reaction mixture is cooled to RT and diluted with EtOAc (50 mL) and H2O (50 mL). The two layers are separated and the aqueous layer is back extracted with EtOAc (50 mL). The combined organic layers are washed with brine and dried over anhydrous Na2SO4. The mixture is filtered and concentrated under vacuum. The crude residue is purified with Biotage Flash Chromatography unit on 40 s cartridge eluting with hexane:CH2Cl2=19:1 solvent mixture to afford 1-benzylindole (about 331.2 mg, 80%) as a white solid: mp 43° C.; 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ7.38 (m, 9H), 6.73 (d, 1H), 5.48 (s, 2H); 13C NMR (CDCl3) δ137.5, 136.3, 128.7, 128.2, 127.6, 126.7, 121.6, 120.9, 119.5, 109.7, 101.6, 50.0; MS m/z 207.1043 [M+1]+.
