Hydrochloric Acid → 6-chloro-5-[4-(pyrrolidin-2-yl)phenyl]-1H-indole-3-carboxylic acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a suspension of 5-{4-[1-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)pyrrolidin-2-yl]phenyl}-6-chloro-1H-indole-3-carboxylic acid (140 mg, 0.318 mmol) in ethyl acetate (10 mL) was added hydrogen chloride in ethyl acetate (4 N HCl in EtOAc, 10 mL) under nitrogen. The suspension was stirred for 4.5 hours at room temperature. The mixture was concentrated to afford the desired product (100 mg, 83.5% yield). MS (ES+) 341 (M+H)+. 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 12.07 (s, 1H), 8.10 (s, 1H), 7.95 (s, 1H), 7.66 (s, 1H), 7.62 (d, 2H), 7.52 (d, 2H), 4.60 (s, 1H), 3.35 (s, 4H), 2.49 (m, 2 H).
