Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1-benzenesulfonyl-5-hydroxymethyl-2-phenylindole (171 mg) in N,N-dimethylformamide (2.4 mL) were added imidazole (128 mg) and chlorotriisopropylsilane (0.150 mL) under cooling with ice, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 20 hours. Water was added to the reaction mixture and this resulting mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with water, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluting solvent: ethyl acetate-hexane) to obtain the title compound (221 mg).
