Reaction Steps

Dimethylamine (2M in THF, 5 mL) was added to a mixture of [3-(1H-indol-4-yl)-phenyl]-acetic acid (1.26 g, 5 mmol), EDC (1.19 g, 1.25 eq.) and HOBt (675 mg, 1 eq.) in THF (10 mL) was stirred at rt for 5 hours. The reaction was concentrated, diluted with ethyl acetate, washed with 10% Na2CO3 (3×), brine, dried and concentrated. The residue was purified on a silica gel column to give 658 mg of 2-[3-(1H-indol-4-yl)-phenyl]-N,N-dimethyl-acetamide as a solid.
