Procedure

2,8-Dimethyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-pyrido[4,3-b]indole (500 mg, 2.5 mmol) was dissolved in 5 mL DMF and stirred for 10 min at RT. Sodium hydride (300 mg, 7.5 mmol) was added portionwise at 0° C. and the reaction mixture was stirred for 10 min. 2-Methoxy-5-(2-methyl-oxiranyl)-pyridine (566 mg, 3.75 mmol) was diluted in DMF (2 mL) and added dropwise at the same temperature and stirred for 12 h. After consumption of starting material, the reaction mixture was quenched with ice water and extracted with EtOAc (3×30 mL). The combined organic layer was washed with water (7×30 mL), dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated. The residue was purified by column chromatography over silica gel (eluent: 15% MeOH in DCM) and further crystallized in ether-hexane to obtain 190 mg of 1-(2,8-dimethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-pyrido[4,3-b]indol-5-yl)-2-(6-methoxy-pyridin-3-yl)-propan-2-ol. 1H NMR (CDCl3, freebase) δ (ppm): 8.22 (s, 1H), 7.5 (d, 1H), 7.1 (s, 1H), 7.0 (d, 1H), 6.83 (d, 1H), 6.5 (d, 1H), 4.1 (m, 2H), 3.91 (s, 3H), 3.5 (m, 2H), 2.63-2.81 (m, 4H), 2.41 (s, 3H), 2.39 (s, 3H), 1.58 (s, 3H). Separation by chiral HPLC provides enantiomers 64a and 64b.
