Procedure
NaH (0.36 gm, 12.6 mmol) was added to a solution of 2.26 gm (12.6 mmol) 5-chloro-1H-indole-3-carbaldehyde in THF cooled in an ice water bath After 20 m stirring, 1.4 g (12.6 mmol) methanesulfonyl chloride was added, and the solution was warmed to room temperature with stirring overnight. The mixture was diluted with EtOAc and washed with water and brine, dried (MgSO4) and concentrated. Normal phase chromatography (CH2Cl2 followed by gradient elution to 10% EtOAc in CH2Cl2) afforded 1.9 gm of the title compound as a white solid, 1H NMR (DMSO) δ 9.75 (s, 1H), 8.0 (s, 1H), 7.9 (s, 1H), 7.5 (d, 1H), 7.1 (d, 1H), 2.3 (s, 3H).
