Participants

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of 3-(1-methylindol-3-yl)-4-(3-aminophenyl)-1H-pyrrole-2,5-dione (100 mg, 0.32 mmol) and hydroxyacetone (0.03 mL, 1.5 eq) in CH2Cl2 (12 mL) and THF (5 mL) was added NaCNBH3 (28 mg, 1.5 eq) and the reaction mixture was stirred overnight. The volatiles were removed under vacuo and the residue was purified by preparatory TLC to give 3-(1-methylindol-3-yl)-4-[3-(2-hydroxy-1-methylethylamino)phenyl]-1H-pyrrole-2,5-dione (8 mg). LC/MS: M+ 375(85.6%).
