Reaction Steps

1.6 g of 60% sodium hydride was suspended in 50 ml of dimethylformamide, and under ice cooling, 5-hydroxy-2-(4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethylphenyl)-3-methylindole was added. After stirring for 30 minutes, 2.8 g of 2-diethylaminoethylbromide hydrobromide was added. The mixture was stirred for 2 hours. The reaction mixture was poured into cold water, and extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was purified by silica gel column chromatography, and then subjected to thin-layer chromatography to give 5-(2-diethylaminoethoxy)-2-(4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethylphenyl)-3-methylindole.
