Procedure

To a solution of 4-chloro-2-fluoro-6-pyridin-3-ylethynyl-phenylamine (3.1 g, 12.57 mmol) in NMP (40 mL) is added potassium tert-butoxide (2.1 g, 18.85 mmol) and the mixture is stirred overnight. Water (1 mL) is added to quench the reaction and the mixture is poured into water (100 mL). The mixture is extracted with diethyl ether five times. The combined organic phase is partially concentrated, resulting in precipitation of the product, which is filtered through a glass sintered funnel and washed with dichloromethane to afford 5-chloro-7-fluoro-2-pyridin-3-yl-1H-indole as a white solid. 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ ppm 7.10-7.15 (m, 2H), 7.47-7.53 (m, 2H), 8.31 (dt, J=8.2, 1.9, 1.8 Hz, 1H), 8.55 (d, J=4.3 Hz, 1H), 9.16 (s, 1H), 12.23 (s, 1H).
