Procedure
To a solution of methyl 4-oxo-2,3,4,9-tetrahydro-1H-carbazole-5-carboxylate (0.27 g, 1 mmol) in THF (5 ml) at 0° C. under N2 was added potassium t-butoxide (0.12 g, 1.05 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred for 30 minutes followed by the addition of methyl iodide (0.76 g, 5.0 mmol). After 3 hours, the reaction mixture was concentrated to a residue and partitioned between EtOAc (40 ml) and 1N HCl (5 ml). The layers were shaken and separated. The organic layer was washed with 1N HCl (2×80 ml) and brine (2×10 ml), dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated to give a solid (0.46 g). The solid was used in the next step without further purified. 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) δ 7.35-7.39 (m, 2H), 7.29 (t, 1H, J=7.2 Hz), 4.01 (s, 3H), 3.72 (s, 3H), 2.93-2.95 (m, 2H), 2.54-2.56 (m, 2H), and 2.23-2.26 (m, 2H). MS (ESI) m/e [M+1]+ 258.0
