A mixture of 60% NaH in mineral oil (115 mg, 2.9 mmol) and 1H-indole-2,6-dicarboxylic acid diethyl ester (500 mg, 1.9 mmol) in DMF (3 mL) was stirred at room temperature for 0.5 h. Then bromo-acetonitrile in DMF (1 mL) was added and the reaction was warmed to 77° C. and kept at this temperature overnight. The reaction was cooled and quenched with ice water. A large amount of precipitate formed which was filtered and rinsed with water, followed by cold ether. The wet cake was dried in the vacuum oven (50° C.) to give 585 mg of 1-cyanomethyl-1H-indole-2,6-dicarboxylic acid diethyl ester.
