Starting with the commercially available 2-indolecarboxylic acid, condensation with the ethyl ester of β-alanine in the presence of EDCI and DMAP, provided the indole 4. Methylation of the indole nitrogen with MeI and K2CO3 proceeded in near quantitative yields, rendering the N-methyl indole, which was used for the synthesis of 3. Hydrolysis of esters 4 and 5 followed by the P2O5/MeSO3H mediated cyclization provided the key intermediate aldisine derivatives 8 and 9.
