Reaction Steps

A solution of 500 mg (1.5 mmol) of 3-acetyl-1-benzenesulfonyl-5-chloroindole in THF (5 ml) was cooled it −78° C. Subsequently, to the reaction mixture was added 1.8 ml (1.8 mmol) of 1M LHMDS in THF. The solution was gradually warmed to 0° C. and cooled again to −78° C. To the solution was added 310 mg (1.8 mmol) of 2-methoxybenzoylchloride. The reaction mixyure was warmed to room temperature. After 30 minutes, the mixture was treated with water and acidified with 6 N hydrochloric acid. The mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate and washed with water, and then dried. The solvent was removed and the obtained residue was chromatographed on silica gel with ethyl acetate-n-hexane as eluent. The fraction of the objective was concentrated to give 160 mg of the titled compound as a foam. Yield: 23%.
