Participants

Reaction Steps

To 1H-Pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine (94, 0.235 g, 1.99 mmol) and 4-(4-chlorobenzyloxy)-3-methoxybenzaldehyde (106, 0.500 g, 1.81 mmol) was added 5 mL of methanol followed by the addition of solid potassium hydroxide (0.203 g, 3.61 mmol). The reaction was allowed to stir at ambient temperature for 18 days. The reaction mixture was poured into water and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was separated and volatiles removed to give a solid which was suspended in hot ethyl acetate. The suspension was allowed to cool and the solid collected by vacuum filtration to provide 107 (548 mg, 74%). MS (ESI) [M+H+]+=409.4.
