Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

POCl3 (12 g, 80 mmol) was added dropwise to DMF (40 mL) held at −20° C. After the addition was complete, the reaction mixture was allowed to warm to 0° C. and was stirred for 1 h. 1-(Benzo[d][1,3]dioxol-5-yl)-N-(2-tert-butyl-1H-indol-5-yl)cyclopropanecarboxamide (3.0 g, 8.0 mmol) was added and the mixture was warmed to 25° C. After stirring for 30 minutes the reaction mixture was poured over ice and stirred for 2 h. The mixture was then heated at 100° C. for 30 min. The mixture was cooled and the solid precipitate was collected and washed with water. The solid was then dissolved in 200 mL dichloromethane and washed with 200 mL of a saturated aq. NaHCO3. The organics were dried over Na2SO4 and evaporated to yield 1-(benzo[d][1,3]dioxol-5-yl)-N-(2-tert-butyl-3-formyl-1H-indol-5-yl)cyclopropane-carboxamide (2.0 g, 61%). ESI-MS m/z calc. 404.5, found 405.5 (M+1)+; retention time 3.30 minutes. 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 11.48 (s, 1H), 10.39 (s, 1H), 8.72 (s, 1H), 8.21 (s, 1H), 7.35-7.31 (m, 2H), 7.04-7.03 (m, 1H), 6.97-6.90 (m, 2H), 6.03 (s, 2H), 1.53 (s, 9H), 1.42-1.39 (m, 2H), 1.05-1.03 (m, 2H).
