Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

4.92 g (30 mmole) of 5-nitroindoline is introduced by portions into a 250 ml double-necked flask, under argon atmosphere, containing a suspension of 2.4 g (60 mmole) of NaH (60%) in 60 ml DMF. The vigorous hydrogen evolution is accompanied by the formation of a red suspension. Agitation is maintained for 30 minutes at 23° C. before the addition, by portions, of 4.74 g (30 mmole) of 3-dimethylaminopropyl chloride hydrochloride. The reaction mixture is agitated and heated at 60° C. during 18 hours. The whole is finally poured into 200 ml of a water/ice mixture. The product is then extracted twice with 100 ml of AcOEt. The organic solution is washed successively with 100 ml of water and 100 ml of brine. After drying over MgSO4 and concentration under vacuum, the evaporation residue is purified by flash chromatography an a silica column (eluent: AcOEt/MeOH: 100/0 to 0/100). A dark yellow oil is obtained with a yield of 48%.
