Procedure

The reaction was conducted according to the General Procedure by heating N-methylindole (66 mg, 0.5 mmol, 1 equiv.), KOt-Bu (56 mg, 0.5 mmol, 1 equiv.) and Et3SiH (88 microliters, 0.55 mmol, 1.1 equiv.) in 1 mL of tetrahydrofuran for 312 hours at 23° C. After aqueous work up, the crude reaction mixture was purified by chromatography on silica eluting with 95:5 hexanes:NEt3 (isochratic) to obtain 103 mg (84%) of the title compound as a colourless oil. 1H NMR (500 MHz, THF-d8) δ 7.63 (dt, J=7.9, 1.0 Hz, 1H), 7.32 (dt, J=8.2, 0.9 Hz, 1H), 7.15 (s, 1H), 7.12 (ddd, J=8.2, 7.0, 1.1 Hz, 1H), 7.01 (ddd, J=8.0, 7.0, 1.1 Hz, 1H), 3.78 (s, 3H), 1.06-0.95 (m, 9H), 0.95-0.83 (m, 6H). 13C NMR (126 MHz, THF-d8) δ 138.63, 135.94, 133.37, 121.44, 120.88, 118.79, 108.96, 104.39, 31.61, 7.04, 4.11.
