Reaction Steps

To an ice-cooled stirred solution of 1-(8-chloro-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2-methylpyrido[4,3-b]indol-5-yl)-2-(4-fluorophenyl)propan-2-ol (500 mg, 1.3 mmol) in DCM (50 mL) was dropwise added DAST (443 mg, 2.6 mmol) and the reaction mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 1 h. The reaction mixture was diluted with DCM (50 mL), washed with saturated sodium bicarbonate solution (3×30 mL), dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated. The residue was purified with reverse phase HPLC to yield 8-chloro-5-(2-fluoro-2-(4-fluorophenyl)propyl)-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-2-methyl-1H-pyrido[4,3-b]indole. 1H-NMR (DMSO-d6, oxalate salt) δ (ppm): 7.50 (s, 1H), 7.40 (m, 3H), 7.18 (t, 2H), 7.05 (d, 1H), 4.60 (m, 2H), 4.25 (m, 2H), 3.05 (m, 2H), 2.85 (s, 3H), 2.70 (m, 2H), 1.65 (d, 3H). Separation by chiral HPLC provides enantiomers II-211a-b.
