Participants

Reaction Steps

Ethyl 2-{5-[3-(2-pyridylamino)propoxy]indolyl}cyclopropanecarboxylate (0.38 g, 1.056 mmol), as prepared in the preceding step, was dissolved in 7.5 mL of methanol. A solution of NaOH (0.13 g, 3.18 mmol) in water (2.5 mL) was added and the reaction was stirred at ambient temperature overnight. The base was then neutralized with an aqueous solution of HCl (3.18 mmol), and the solvent was evaporated under vacuum. The crude product was chromatographed on silica gel to obtain the title compound (200 mg, 57%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) 5 1.66 (m, 2H), 2.00 (m, 1H), 2.16 (m, 2H), 3.58 (m, 2H), 3.72 (m, 1H), 4.12 (t, 2H, J=5.8 Hz), 6.31 (dd, 1H, J=0.7, 3.2 Hz), 6.77 (m, 1H,), 6.85 (dd, 1H, J=2.3, 8.8 Hz), 6.97 (d, 1H, J=9.0 Hz), 7.06 (d, 1H, J=2.3 Hz), 7.13 (d, 1H, J=3.2 Hz), 7.33 (d, 1H, J=8.8 Hz), 7.77 (m, 2H). Mass spectrum (LCMS, ESI pos.) Calcd. for C21H23N3O3 352.2 (M+H); Found: 352.2.
