2-phenyl-7-azaindole was prepared in two steps. First, 2-amino-3-picoline was reacted with benzoyl chloride in chloroform in the presence of pyridine to produce 2-benzamido-3-picoline in 33% yield. Second, pyrolysis of 2-benzamido-3-picoline in N-methylaniline in the presence of NaH at 280° C. was performed to produce 2-phenyl-7-azaindole (FIG. 18) in 58% yield. This compound was characterized by NMR spectroscopy.
