반응 단계

An oven-dried resealable Schlenk tube was purged with argon and charged with Pd2(dba)3 (11.2 mg, 0.012 mmol, 2.5 mol % Pd), 2 [Example 1] (14.4 mg, 0.036 mmol, 7.5 mol %), NaOt-Bu (130 mg, 1.35 mmol) and indole (115 mg, 0.98 mmol). The tube was purged with argon then toluene (1.0 mL) and 4-bromotoluene (120 μL, 0.98 mmol) were added through a rubber septum. The septum was removed, the tube was sealed with a teflon screw cap and the mixture was stirred at 100° C. for 21 h. The reaction was then diluted with ether (20 mL), filtered through celite and concentrated in vacuo. The crude material was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel to afford 191 mg (94%) of a colorless oil.
