Procedure

To a solution of diethyl 1-oxo-6b,9,10,10a-tetrahydro-1H-pyrido[3′,4′:4,5]pyrrolo[1,2,3-de]quinoxaline-3,8(2H,7H)-dicarboxylate (360 mg, 0.97 mmol) in DMF (20 mL) at 0° C. was added NaH (193 mg, 4.8 mmol), MeI (0.3 mL, 4.8 mmol) and stirred at rt for 16 hours. The solution was diluted with water (20 mL), and extracted with EtOAc (2×20 mL). The combined extracts were dried over magnesium sulfate, concentrated to afford diethyl 2-methyl-1-oxo-6b,9,10,10a-tetrahydro-1H-pyrido[3′,4′:4,5]pyrrolo[1,2,3-de]quinoxaline-3,8(2H,7H)-dicarboxylate (300 mg, 80%) as a crude oil. MS [M+H]+ 388.
