Participants

Reaction Steps

The title compound was prepared in a manner similar to that described in Example 2A by using 2-methyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydroazepino[4,5-b]indole-5-carboxylic acid n-propyl ester (compound in Paragraph A) and 4-fluorobenzoyl chloride; MS (ES): 407 (MH+). The racemic sample was submitted to chiral separation using a 10 mm×250 mm Chiralcel OD column and a 10% iPrOH/hexane isocratic mobile phase to give two isomers.
