Dichloromethane → 5-[2-(1-Hydroxy-1-methyl-ethyl)-pyridin-4-yloxy]-indole-1-carboxylic acid (3-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-amide

Participants

Reaction Steps

Methyl magnesium iodide (0.30 mL, 3.0 M) is added to a solution of 4-[1-(3-Trifluoromethyl-phenylcarbamoyl)-1H-indol-5-yloxy]-pyridine-2-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (0.150 g, 0.302 mmol) in THF (5 mL) at rt. After stirring overnight the reaction is diluted with MeOH (5 mL) and workup done with DCM and pH 7 buffer. Following concentration the residue is separated by FCC (80-100% EtOAc/heptane) to give the title compound. MS (ESI) m/z 456.1 (M+1).
