Procedure
A suspension of 6-methoxy-3H-indolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine-4-one (800 mg, 3.08 mmol, ~83% pure) and POCl3 (7 mL) is heated at 90° C. for 6 h. The suspension is concentrated to a solid that is evacuated at 1 mm for 1 h. The solids are cooled in a -78° C. bath then treated dropwise with cold H2O. The bath is removed and the frozen solids are allowed to gradually melt. The solids are filtered, washed well with cold H2O, and dried to leave 4-chloro-6-methoxyindolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine (733 mg, 81%) that is about 80% pure. 1H NMR (DMSO): δ12.64 (1H, br s, exchanges with D2O), 8.74 (1H, s), 7.74 (1H, d, J=2.4 Hz), 7.57 (1H, d, J=8.9 Hz), 7.28 (1H, dd, J=8.9, 2.4 Hz), 3.88 (3H, s).
