Procedure

0.41 g of carbonyldiimidazole is added to a solution of 0.44 g of 3-indolylacetic acid in 20 cm3 of dry methylene chloride. The mixture is stirred at room temperature for 1 hour and a suspension of 1.1 g of (3aRS,4RS,7aRS)-7,7-diphenyl-4-(2-methoxyphenyl)-perhydroisoindol-4-ol hydrochloride in 25 cm3 of dry methylene chloride and then 0.7 cm3 of triethylamine are subsequently added in succession. The reaction mixture is stirred at room temperature for 24 hours, diluted with 100 cm3 of methylene chloride, washed with 100 cm3 of water (twice) and then with 100 cm3 of an aqueous saturated solution of sodium chloride, dried over magnesium sulphate and concentrated to dryness under reduced pressure (2.7 kPa). The residue is chromatographed over a Merck silica gel column (particle size 0.04-0.06 mm, diameter 2 cm, height 22 cm) by eluting under a pressure of 0.5 bar of nitrogen with a mixture of cyclohexane and ethyl acetate (35/65 by volume) and collecting fractions of 20 cm3. Fractions 7 to 8 are combined and then concentrated to dryness under reduced pressure (2.7 kPa). The residue is triturated in diisopropyl ether. 0.17 g of (3aRS,4RS,7aRS)-7,7-diphenyl-2-(3-indolylacetyl)-4-(2-methoxyphenyl)-perhydroisoindol-4-ol is obtained in the form of a white solid.
