Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of (3-acetyl-1H-indol-6-yl)-acetic acid [39689-58-2] (500 mg, 2.85 mmol) in MeOH (14 mL), cooled to at 0° C., was added (trimethylsilyl)diazomethane (2M solution in Et2O; 6.00 mL, 12.0 mmol). After stirring at RT for 30 min, the reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo to afford the title compound as a yellow wax. MS: 190 [M+H]+; tR (HPLC conditions k): 3.20 min. The material thus obtained was used directly in the next step without further purification.
