Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 3-methyl-7,8,9,9a,10,11-hexahydro-5H-pyrido[3′,2′:4,5]pyrrolo[3,2-f]indolizine (100 mg, 0.44 mmol) and powdered KOH (172.6 mg, 3.038 mmol) in NMP (2 mL) was stirred at RT for 5 min. 2-(Trifluoromethyl)-5-vinylpyridine (152 mg, 0.881 mmol) was added into the reaction mixture and stirring continued for 16 h at RT. The reaction mixture was diluted with water and extracted with EtOAc. The organic layer was washed with water, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue obtained was purified by silica gel flash chromatography to yield 3-methyl-11-(2-(6-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-3-yl)ethyl)-7,8,9,9a,10,11-hexahydro-5H-pyrido[3′,2′:4,5]pyrrolo[3,2-f]indolizine;
