Procedure

To a stirred solution of 1,3-dimethyl-2-(methylaminomethyl)indole (1.5 g, 8 mmole), from Preparation 40, and Et3N (1.12 mL, 8 mmole) in CH2Cl2 (75 mL) at 0° C. was added acryloyl chloride (0.65 mL, 8 mmole) dropwise over 5 minutes. The reaction was stirred at 0° C. for 1 hr then was poured into ice water. The organic phase was separated, washed with brine, dried (MgSO4), and concentrated to dryness to give the title compound (1.7 g, 90%) as a yellow oil. This was used without further purification: TLC silica gel (50% EtOAc/hexanes) Rf=0.41.
