Procedure

To a stirred solution of 174 mg of tert-butyl 2-cyano-6-methoxy-5-methyl-1H-indole-1-carboxylate (0.61 mmol) in carbon tetrachloride (2.5 mL) was added 108 mg of N-bromosuccinimide (0.61 mmol) and 11 mg of AIBN (0.065 mmol). The mixture was refluxed for 1 h, then cooled and concentrated and filtered through short silica gel plug using hexane-ethyl acetate 10:1 to give 223 mg of crude tert-butyl 5-(bromomethyl)-2-cyano-6-methoxy-1H-indole-1-carboxylate that was used in the next step without further purification.
