Procedure
Indole-5-boronic acid, 193 mg (1.2 mmol) and methyl-3-(bromomethyl)benzoate, 230 mg (1.0 mmol) were added into a 100 ml round-bottomed flask containing 15 ml THF, then 50 mg Pd(PPh3)4 was added, followed by 2 ml 2M K2CO3. The mixture was stirred and heated to 80° C. under N2 protection for over 4 hours. The reaction was monitored by TLC. After the reaction was completed and the mixture was cooled to room temperature, 10 ml H2O was added and the product extracted with ethyl acetate (15 ml×3). The organic solvent was combined and dried with anhydrous Na2SO4, filtered and evaporated to dryness. The crude product was purified by chromatographic column using hexane:ethyl acetate (7:1) as eluent. 260 mg methyl 3-(1H-indol-5-ylmethyl)benzoate was obtained as a pale yellow solid, yield 48%. Saponification of the ester yielded the target compound, 8.2 mg target compound was obtained as a grey powder. Mass calculated for C16H13NO2: 251; LCMS: 252.6 (M+H)+; 1HNMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ ppm 7.78 (1H, s), 7.74 (1H, d, J=7.9 Hz), 7.50 (1H, d, J=7.3 Hz), 7.38 (2H, m), 7.29 (2H, m), 6.95 (1H, dd, J=8.5 Hz, J=1.2 Hz), 6.35 (1H, s), 4.05 (2H, s).
