Procedure

Tert-butyl (6aS,10aR)-2-bromo-4,5,7,8,10,10a-hexahydropyrido[4,3-b]pyrrolo[3,2,1-hi]indole-9(6aH) carboxylate (189 mg, 0.5 mmol) was dissolved in DME (7.8 mL). Ba(OH)2 8H2O (236.6 mg, 0.75 mmol) in H2O (2.6 mL) was added. 4-ethoxy-2-trifluoromethylphenyl boronic acid (140 mg, 0.6 mmol) was added followed by Pd(PPh3)4 (12 mg, 0.01 mmol). The reaction flask was degassed and refluxed under a nitrogen atmosphere for 18 hrs. After cooling to RT, the reaction was concentrated in vacuo. Water (10 mL) and EtOAc (10 mL) were added. The layers were separated and the aqueous phase was extracted with EtOAc (2×10 mL). The combined organic layer was washed with brine (2×10 mL), dried over MgSO4 and concentrated in vacuo and after chromatographic purification (30% EtOAc/Hexane) to afford the title compound (140 mg, 57%). 1H NMR (CDCl3, 300 MHz) δ 7.20 (d, 2H, J=5.9 Hz), 7.19 (s, 1H), 7.01 (dd, 1H, J=6.2, 2.2 Hz), 6.85 (s, 1H), 6.81 (s, 1H), 4.05-4.10 (m, 3H), 3.82-3.94 (m, 1H), 3.64-3.68 (m, 1H), 3.22-3.44 (m, 4H), 2.84-3.10 (m, 3H), 1.80-1.90 (m, 2H), 1.42-1.47 (m, 12H) ppm. MS-ApCI: 489 [M+H+].
