Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 3-(2-azidoethyl)-5,6-dichloro-2-(triethylsilyl)-1H-indole (0.497 g; 1.35 mmol) and triphenylphosphine (0.529 g; 1.35 mmol) in methanol (10 mL) was stirred at 70° C. for 2 hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure and the crude material was dissolved in a solution of tetrabutylamonium fluoride (4.04 mL 1M) in THF, stirred at room temperature for 36 hours, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude material was used without any further purification.
