To methyl 1H-indole-7-carboxylate (1.5 g) was added DMF (15 mL), and potassium tert-butoxide (1.5 g) was added thereto under ice-cooling, followed by stirring for 10 minutes. 4-(Bromomethyl)biphenyl (2.8 g) was added thereto, followed by stirring at room temperature for 19 hours. The reaction mixture was again ice-cooled, and a 10% aqueous citric acid solution (20 mL) was added thereto, followed by extraction with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with saturated brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (hexane/ethyl acetate=97/3-95/5) to obtain methyl 1-(biphenyl-4-ylmethyl)-1H-indole-7-carboxylate (2.5 g).
