3-(4-Piperidinyl)-1H-indole → 4-Fluorobenzyl bromide

Participants

Reaction Steps

The procedure described in Example 1 was performed using 0.2 g (1 mmol) of 3-piperidin-4-yl-1H-indole and 0.19 g (1.1 mmol) of 5-bromomethyl-furan-2-carboxylic acid ethyl ester. 0.08 g (0.22 mmol) of the crude, obtained as in step D, were then alkylated with 0.04 mL (0.33 mmol) of 4-fluorobenzyl bromide affording 0.031 g (32% yield) of 5-{4-[1-(4-fluorobenzyl)-1H-indol-3-yl]-piperidin-1-ylmethyl}-furan-2-carboxylic acid.
