Participants

Reaction Steps

1-(2-Methoxy-phenyl)-[1,4]diazepane (103 mg, 0.5 mmol), 4-(5-fluoro-1H-3-indolyl)-cyclohexanone (116 mg, 0.5 mmol) 5 mL 1,2-dichloroethane and 159 mg (0.75 mmol) of NaBH(OAc), were stirred at 23° C. in a 20 mL scintillation vial for 21 h. The reaction was quenched with 2 mL 1N NaOH, the vial capped, shaken and the organic layer (bottom layer) was removed with an automatic pipet. The organics were removed in a Speed Vac and pumped down overnight to afford 169 mg (0.4 mmol, an 80% yield) of the title compound as an off-white solid. MS (ES) m/z (relative intensity): 422 (M++H, 100).
