To a solution of methyl 2-methyl-1H-indole-3-carboxylate (0.5 g, 2.6 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (20 mL) was added cesium carbonate (1.7 g, 5.2 mmol) and 2-bromobutane (0.71 g, 5.2 mmol), the mixture was stirred at 100° C. under microwave for 1 hour, the mixture was concentrated and purified by column chromatography (silica gel, ethyl acetate/petroleum ether=1:20) to give methyl 1-sec-butyl-2-methyl-1H-indole-carboxylate (141 mg, 22%).
