Reaction Steps

A solution of 85 mg (0.64 mmol) of 2-methyl-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine and 140 mg(0.76 mmol) of (2-bromoethyl)benzene in 1 ml acetonitrile was refluxed for 40 h. The solvent was evaporated and the residue was treated with ether. The solid that formed was isolated by filtration to give 188 mg (62%) of 2-methyl-7- (2-phenylethyl)pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridinehydrobromide.
