Procedure

To a refluxing solution of (R)-benzyl 2-((2-amino-6-(methoxycarbonyl)phenyl)ethynyl)-2-methylpyrrolidine-1-carboxylate (1.1 g, 2.8 mmol) and dibromoethane (5.21 g, 2.8 mmol) in ethanol (20 mL) was added zinc powder (1.43 g, 22 mmol) in one portion. After refluxing for 8 h, the reaction mixture was filtered and the the filtrate was concentrated to 3 mL, which was poured into water (15 mL). The reaction mixture was extracted with EA (20 mL×3). The combined extracts were dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, and evaporated to give pale brown oil, which was chromatographed over silica gelelution with hexane:ethyl acetate (5:1) to give the (R)-methyl 2-(1-(benzyloxycarbonyl)-2-methylpyrrolidin-2-yl)-1H-indole-4-carboxylate and (307 mg, 0.78 mmol). 1H NMR (CDCl3-d) δ 10.3 (s, 1H), 7.83 (d, 1H, J=7.8 Hz), 7.53 (d, 1H, J=7.8 Hz), 7.29-7.35 (m, 5H), 7.16 (t, 1H, J=7.8 Hz), 6.96 (s, 1H), 5.15 (s, 2H), 3.95 (s, 3H), 3.56-3.59 (m, 2H), 2.83-2.85 (m, 1H), 2.03-2.07 (m, 2H), and 1.84-1.93 (m, 4H). MS (ESI) m/e [M+1]+ 393.0.
