Dimethylformamide → Allyl-{5-[1-(4-fluoro-phenyl)-1H-indol-5-yl]-pentyl}-methyl-amine

Participants

Reaction Steps

130 mg (0.26 mmol) Methanesulfonic acid 5-[1-(4-fluoro-phenyl)-1H-indol-5-yl]-pentyl ester and 0.5 ml (5.2 mmol) N-allylmethylamine in 0.5 ml DMF were stirred at 60° C. for 2 h. The solution was concentrated and dissolved in water and CH2Cl2. 2M NaOH was added and the inorganic phase was extracted with CH2Cl2. The combined organic phases were washed with water and dried over Na2SO4. Column chromatography with CH2Cl2/MeOH 19:1 yielded 90 mg (98%) Allyl-{5-[1-(4-fluoro-phenyl)-1H-indol-5-yl]-pentyl}-methyl-amine as orange oil, MS: 351(MH+).
