Procedure
To a solution of NaH (44 mg, 4 eq.) in DMF (0.5 mL) is added 2-bromomethyl-1-ethyl-6-methoxy-1H-indole-3-carbonitrile (80 mg, 0.274 mmol) and phenol (2 eq.). After stirring for 20 h, the mixture is poured into ice water and extracted with CH2Cl2. The organic layer is washed with brine and dried with Na2SO4. The solvent is evaporated under vacuum and purified with flash column chromatography on silica gel using EtOAc/petroleum ether (1/5) as eluent to yield 1-ethyl-6-methoxy-2-phenoxymethyl-1H-indole-3-carbonitrile, compound 99.
