Procedure

A mixture of 3-(2-formyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1H-indol-3-yl)-propionic acid (5.4 g), 3.2 g of 4-methyl-2-oxindole and 2.7 g of piperidine in 25 mL of ethanol was refluxed for 4 hours. Upon slow addition of acetic acid (8 mL), a precipitate formed. The mixture was refluxed for 5 minutes and cooled to ambient temperature. The precipitate was collected by vacuum filtration and washed with 20 mL of ethanol. The solids were slurry-washed in 30 mL of refluxing ethanol, cooled, collected by vacuum filtration, washed with 30 mL of ethanol and dried under vacuum to give 6.2 g (80% yield) of 3-[2-(4-methyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroindol-3-ylidenemethyl)-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1H-indol-3-yl]-propionic acid as an orange solid.
