Procedure

1-(1-Bromoprop-1-en-2-yl)-4-fluorobenzene (511.2 mg, 2.4 mmol) was dissolved in DMF. Potassium phosphate (848 mg, 4 mmol) was added followed by the addition of copper (I)iodide (38 mg, 0.2 mmol) and L-proline (46 mg, 0.4 mmol). 8-chloro-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-2-methyl-1H-pyrido[4,3-b]indole (440 mg, 2 mmol) was added to the reaction mixture and nitrogen gas purged for 2 min. The reaction mixture was heated at 85° C. overnight. The reaction mixture was cooled to RT and ice water was added. Solid mass was filtered under vacuum and crude purified by silica gel chromatography using 0-3% MeOH:DCM as eluent. Two isomers were further purified through reverse phase HPLC and peak 1 was submitted as the final compound. Yield: 120 mg. 1H NMR (DMSO, HCl salt) δ (ppm): 7.50 (s, 1H), 7.10-6.95 (m, 6H), 6.82 (s, 1H), 4.50 (m, 1H), 4.20 (m, 1H), 3.60 (m, 2H), 2.85 (s, 3H), 2.80 (m, 2H), 2.25 (s, 3H).
