Procedure

According to the general procedure (GP10), microwave-assisted Pictet-Spengler reaction (60 W; 140° C.; 6.5 bars; 10 min.) between 2-(2-ethyl-4-iodo-imidazol-1-yl)-ethylamine (26.610 mmol) and 3-(4-bromo-phenyl)-propionaldehyde (6.350 g; 29.803 mmol) afforded 8-[2-(4-bromo-phenyl)-ethyl]-3-ethyl-1-iodo-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-imidazo[1,5-a]pyrazine. LC-MS: tR=0.74 min.; [M+H]+=460.01 g/mol.
