Procedure

Heated at 50° C. a suspension of 3-(4-pyridinylamino)-1H-indole-2-carboxylic acid potassium salt (2.0 g, 6.86 mmol) in anhydrous THF (100 mL) was oil bath for 20 min. Add to it a solution of N-(chloromethyl)-2-pyrrolidinone (1.10 g, 8.23 mmol) in anhydrous THF (5 mL) dropwise. After 3 hrs, cool the reaction to ambient temperature. Add water (100 mL) and extract with ethyl acetate (3×100 mL). Combine the organic layers and wash with NaHCO3 (sat), water, brine, dry with MgSO4 and then concentrate. Purify the residue on an ISCO RediSep 10-gram silicagel cartridge, eluting with ethyl acetate and then 5% methanol in ethyl acetate. Combine product containing fractions and concentrate to give the title compound as an off-yellow solid (205 mg): MS 313(M+H), TLC (silica gel, MeOH/EtOAc 1:1). Rf=0.33, 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) δ 11.78 (1H, s), 8.47 (1H, s), 8.09 (2H, d, J=6.2 Hz), 7.49 (3H, m), 7.09 (1H, m), 6.59 (2H), 5.76 (residual CH2Cl2), 5.44 (2H, s), 3.37 (2H, m), 2.22 (2H, m), 1.87 (2H, m).
