Procedure

To a solution of diethyl 1-oxo-6b,9,10,10a-tetrahydro-1H-pyrido[3′,4′:4,5]pyrrolo[1,2,3-de]quinoxaline-3,8(2H,7H)-dicarboxylate (360 mg, 0.97 mmol) in DMF (20 mL) at 0° C. was added NaH (193 mg, 4.8 mmol), MeI (0.3 mL, 4.8 mmol)- and stirred at rt for 16 hours. The solution was diluted with water (20 mL), and extracted with EtOAc (2×20 mL). The combined extracts were dried over magnesium sulfate, concentrated to afford diethyl 2-methyl-1-oxo-6b,9,10,10a-tetrahydro-1H-pyrido[3′,4′:4,5]pyrrolo[1,2,3-de]quinoxaline-3,8(2H,7H)-dicarboxylate (300 mg, 80%) as a crude oil. MS [M+H]+388.
