Procedure
A solution of 6-(cyanomethyl)-1-[3-{2(E)-(7-chloroquinolin-2-yl)ethenyl}benzyl]indole (Example 29b) (180 mg, 0.41 mmol), methyl iodide (77 μl, 1.24 mmol) and benzyl-triethyl-ammonium chloride (94 mg, 0.41 mmol) in dichloromethane (3 ml) was stirred with a solution of sodium hydroxide (1.5 g) in water (1.5 ml) heating under reflux for 2 hours. The mixture was diluted with dichloromethane and water and the aqueous layer was extracted with further dichloromethane. The combined solvent layer was dried and evaporated and the residue was chromatographed on silica in ethyl acetate-hexane (1:3). The resulting crude product was further purified by RP-HPLC on a C18 column (eluting with 85 methanol:15 water:0.1 acetic acid) followed by crystallisation from methanol-water.
