Reaction Steps

1-(Benzo[d][1,3]dioxol-5-yl)-N-(2-tert-butyl-1H-indol-5-yl)cyclopropanecarboxamide (320 mg, 0.84 mmol) was dissolved in a mixture composed of anhydrous DMF (0.5 mL) and anhydrous THF (5 mL) under N2. NaH (60% in mineral oil, 120 mg, 3.0 mmol) was added at room temperature. After 30 min of stirring, the reaction mixture was cooled to −15° C. before a solution of epichlorohydrin (79 μL, 1.0 mmol) in anhydrous DMF (1 mL) was added dropwise. The reaction mixture was stirred for 15 min at −15° C., then for 8 h at room temperature. MeOH (1 mL) was added and the mixture was heated for 10 min at 105° C. in the microwave oven. The mixture was cooled, filtered and purified by preparative HPLC to give 1-(benzo[d][1,3]dioxol-5-yl)-N-(2-tert-butyl-1-(2-hydroxy-3-methoxy-propyl)-1H-indol-5-yl)cyclopropanecarboxamide. 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 8.44 (s, 1H), 7.59 (d, J=1.9 Hz, 1H), 7.31 (d, J=8.9 Hz, 1H), 7.03 (dd, J=8.7, 1.9 Hz, 2H), 6.95 (dd, J=8.0, 1.7 Hz, 1H), 6.90 (d, J=8.0 Hz, 1H), 6.16 (s, 1H), 6.03 (s, 2H), 4.33 (dd, J=15.0, 4.0 Hz, 1H), 4.19 (dd, J=15.0, 8.1 Hz, 1H), 4.02 (ddd, J=8.7, 4.8 Hz, 1H), 3.41-3.32 (m, 2H), 3.30 (s, 3H), 1.41 (s, 9H), 1.41-1.38 (m, 2H), 1.03 (dd, J=6.7, 4.0 Hz, 2H). MS (ESI) m/e (M+H+) 465.0.
