Procedure

A mixture of 1-(6-chloro-1H-indol-3-yl)-2,2,2-trifluoro-ethanone (300 mg, 1.21 mmol), potassium carbonate (419 mg, 3.03 mmol), and 1-bromopentane (0.23 mL, 1.82 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (4 mL) in a sealed reaction vessel was heated at 60° C. for 16 h. At this time, the reaction was cooled to 25° C. and partitioned between water (30 mL) and ethyl acetate (30 mL). This mixture was treated with a 1N aqueous hydrochloric acid solution (6 mL), shaken, and separated. The organic layer was concentrated in vacuo to afford a yellow solid. The resulting solid was treated with a 20% aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (7 mL) and was heated at 115° C. for 24 h. At this time, the reaction was cooled to 25° C. and was partitioned between water (75 mL) and ethyl acetate (75 mL). This solution was treated with a 1N aqueous hydrochloric acid solution (25 mL), shaken, and separated. The organic layer was washed with a saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution (1×50 mL), dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo to afford 6-chloro-1-pentyl-1H-indole-3-carboxylic acid (315 mg, 98%) as a yellow solid: mp 152-154° C.; EI-HRMS m/e calcd for C14H16ClNO2 (M+) 265.0870, found 265.0865.
