1,1,3,3-Tetramethylguanidine (0.68 mL, 5.43 mmol) was added at room temperature to a solution of N-(benzyloxycarbonyl)-α-phophonoglycine trimethyl ester (1.88 g, 5.69 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (40 mL). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 15 min and cooled to −78° C., and a solution of 1-(2-trimethylsilanyl-ethanesulfonyl)-1H-indole-5-carbaldehyde (1.6 g, 5.17 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (15 mL) was added slowly. The resulting reaction mixture was stirred at −78° C. for 2 h and then warmed to room temperature in 3 h. Solvents were removed in vacuo and the residue was subjected to flash chromatography on silica gel using methylene chloride/hexanes (1:1.5) with 1% triethylamine as eluent to afford the title compound as a 92:8 Z/E mixture (determined by integration of CO2CH3, for Z isomer at 3.79 ppm, and E isomer at 3.65 ppm). For the Z isomer: 1H-NMR (CD3CN, 500 MHz) δ 7.96 (s, 1H), 7.91 (d, J=8.5 Hz, 1H), 7.66 (d, J=8.5 Hz, 1H), 7.56 (d, J=3.7 Hz, 1H), 7.51 (s, 1H), 7.43-7.35 (m, 5H), 7.67 (d, J=3.7 Hz, 1H), 5.16 (s, 2H), 3.79 (s, 3H), 3.42-3.38 (m, 2H), 0.87-0.83 (m, 2H), −0.04 (s, 9H). Mass spec. 515.20 (MH)+.
