Reaction Steps
To a solution of 10-methoxyharmalan in dichloro-methane is added triethylamine (1.5 eq) and the mixture is cooled to 0° C. A solution (1/5 v/v) of ethyl chloro-formate in dichloromethane is then added dropwise. The mixture is stirred at 0° C. until the starting material disappears (2 h). After evaporation of the solvent, the crude product is separated out on a chromatography plate (eluent: EtOAc/pet. ether; 50/50).
