Reaction Steps

2-(8-Carboxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrido[3,4-b]indol-2-yl)-N-(3,3,3-trifluoro-1-isopropyl-2-oxopropyl)acetamide (0.14 g) was dissolved in dioxane (50 mL), and 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (0.45 g) was added. The resulting solution was allowed to stir overnight. Ethyl acetate (150 mL) was added and the solution was washed (H2O, brine), dried, and evaporated. The resulting solid was recrystallized from ethyl acetate to give the title compound (0.056 g); mp 260-262° C.
