Procedure

A sealed tube containing 2-(2-Fluoro-5-methoxyphenyl)-6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-indolo[2,3-b]pyrazine (46 mg, 0.155 mmol), cyclohexene (10 equiv., 0.157 mL, 1.55 mmol), Pd black (35 mg) and mesitylene (10 mL) was heated to 200° C. in an oil bath and the contents stirred via a magnetic stir bar. The progress of the reaction was monitored by intermittently opening the cooled tube and taking out an aliquot for TLC analysis (30% ethyl acetate/hexanes eluent; the aromatized product has a slightly larger Rf value than that of the starting material). Upon completion of the reaction, the mixture was filtered through celite and the mesitylene removed using a high vacuum rotary evaporator. Recrystallization from hexanes/ethyl acetate afforded 2-(2-Fluoro-5-methoxyphenyl)-5H-indolo[2,3-b]pyrazine (Compound 2) as an off-white solid.
