A mixture of N-[3-(4-chlorophenylsulfanyl)-2-methyl-1H-indol-4-yl]acetamide (1.0 g, 3.0 mmol), anhydrous potassium carbonate (0.63 g, 4.6 mmol), acetone (10 mL) and ethyl bromoacetate (0.50 mL, 4.5 mmol) was heated under reflux for 1.5 h then cooled to r.t. and left stirring at this temperature overnight. After heating under reflux for an additional 1 h, the mixture was cooled to r.t. Water (2×10 mL) was added, the solid product was collected by filtration, washed with water (10 mL), then dried in a vacuum oven at 40° C. to afford the title compound as an off-white solid; 1.16 g (92%); purity 95.4 area % by HPLC; m/z: 417/419 (MH+); 1H-NMR: 9.52 (1H, s), 7.45 (1H, d, J=7.9 Hz), 7.33 (1H, d, J=8.2 Hz), 7.29 (2H, d, J=8.6 Hz), 7.11 (1H, t, J=8.0 Hz), 6.97 (1H, d, J=8.6 Hz), 5.24 (2H, s), 4.18 (2H, q, J=7.1 Hz), 2.39 (3H, s), 1.86 (3H, s), 1.22 (3H, t, J=7.1 Hz).
