Procedure

The reaction was conducted according to the General Procedure by heating N-methylindole (66 mg, 0.5 mmol, 1 equiv.), KOt-Bu (8.4 mg, 0.08 mmol, 0.15 equiv.) and Et3SiH (239 microliters, 1.5 mmol, 3 equiv.) in 1 mL of tetrahydrofuran for 48 hours at 23° C. After aqueous work up, the crude reaction mixture was purified by chromatography on silica eluting with hexanes (isochratic) to obtain 88 mg (72%) of the title compound as a colourless oil. 1H NMR (500 MHz, THF-d8) δ 7.50 (dt, J=7.9, 1.0 Hz, 1H), 7.32 (dq, J=8.3, 0.9 Hz, 1H), 7.11 (ddd, J=8.2, 6.9, 1.2 Hz, 1H), 6.97 (ddd, J=7.9, 7.0, 0.9 Hz, 1H), 6.68 (d, J=0.9 Hz, 1H), 3.84 (s, 3H), 1.06-0.98 (m, 9H), 0.98-0.92 (m, 6H). 13C NMR (126 MHz, THF-d8) δ 140.48, 136.86, 128.70, 121.44, 120.05, 118.51, 112.96, 108.71, 32.18, 6.83, 3.63.
