Procedure
A solution of 3.00 g (max. 5.86 mmol) of crude 2-[2-(3,5-dimethylphenyl)-3-[2-[4-(pyridin-3-yl)butylamino]ethyl]-1H-indol-5-yl]-2-methylpropionic acid ethyl ester in 30 mL of dry methylene chloride was stirred under nitrogen with cooling in a dry-ice-acetone bath. To this solution was added by syringe 1.106 mL (820 mg, 6.36 mmol) of N,N-diisopropylethylamine. Then 0.956 mL (1.14 g, 6.36 mmol) of benzyl chloroformate was added dropwise by syringe over 5-10 minutes. After 20 minutes, the solution was removed from the cooling bath and allowed to warm to room temperature. After 2 hours, the solution was diluted with 50 mL of methylene chloride, transferred to a separatory funnel, and shaken with 80 mL of water. The organic phase was dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. Flash chromatography of the residual gum on silica gel (gradient elution with 0.2-2% methanol in methylene chloride gave 2.81 g (55% overall for Steps 1 and 2) of pale, golden-yellow gum; virtually homogeneous by TLC in 95:5 CH2Cl2-MeOH. 500 MHz 1H NMR (CDCl3) was complex, owing to rotamers, but appeared to be consistent with the assigned structure. Mass spectrum (ESI): m/e=646 (M+H).
