A mixture of 4-bromo-1H-indole-3-carbonitrile LVII (2 g, 9.05 mmol), ethyl cinnamate (3.19 g, 18.1 mmol), tetrabutylammonium bromide (582 mg, 1.81 mmol), TEA (2.52 ml, 18.1 mmol) and palladium-dichloro-[bis-(tri-ortho-tolyl)phosphine] (357 mg, 0.453 mmol) in a sealed vial was stirred at 110° C. for 20 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature, partitioned between H2O and DCM, and the aqueous layer was extracted with DCM. The organic extracts were combined, dried over Na2SO4, filtered, concentrated, and purified via flash chromatography (hexane/EtOAc) affording 3-(3-cyano-1H-Indol-4-yl)-3-phenyl-acrylic acid ethyl ester LVIII as a yellow solid (1.57 g, 55% yield).
