Reaction Steps

In a reaction flask 5-Benzyloxy-2-(4-benzyloxy-phenyl)-1 H-indole No. 141 (5.90 g, 14.6 mmol) was mixed with CH2Cl2 (90 ML) was cooled down to 0° C. (the starting material did not completely dissolve in CH2Cl2). While stirring vigorously, a solution of chlorosulfonyl isocyanate (2.26 g, 16.0 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (25 mL) was added dropwise over a period of 45 min. The reaction was run at 0° C. for 2 hrs while detected by TLC for the formation of the insoluble N-chlorosulfonylamide intermediate. After this period, Et3N (1.47 g, 14.6 mL) in CH2Cl2 (25 mL) was added dropwise over 45 min at 0° C. The insoluble residue became soluble in the reaction solvent as the Et3N addition was approaching completion. The reaction was let go for the additional 1 hr at 0° C. and 2 hrs at rt. The progress of the reaction could be observed by the insoluble solid formation o the product as the reaction time went on. The solvent was stripped down and the solid residue purified by trituration with methanol to yield (4.0 g, 68.3%). Mp=238-242° C.; 1H NMR (DMSO) 12.31 (s, 1 H), 7.88 (d, 2 H, J=8.8 Hz), 7.48 (d, 4 H, J=7.25 Hz), 7.55−7.30 (m, 7 H), 7.23 (d, 2 H, J=8.8 Hz), 7.14 (d, 1 H, J=2.4 Hz), 6.97 (dd, 1 H, J=2.2 Hz, 8.8 Hz), 5.20 (s, 2 H), 5.17 (s, 2 H); MS eI m/z 430 (M+).
