Procedure
To a stirred solution of indole (0.53 g, 4.5 mmol) in dry DMF (15 mL) was added potassium t-butoxide (580 mg, 5.2 mmol) at ambient temperature. After stirring for 30 minutes, 4-(methanesulfonyloxymethylene)-piperidine-1-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (1.2 g, 4.5 mmol) was added. After 8 hours, the reaction mixture was quenched with water and extracted with t-butyl methyl ether (2×50 mL). The combined organic phases were washed with water (2×), dried, evaporated, and purified by column chromatography on silica gel eluting with toluene/acetone 96:4. Evaporation of the eluting solvent gave 0.92 g (71% of theory) of a slightly bluish oil.
