1 g of compound 1 was dissolved in 30 ml of dimethylformamide and the solution was stirred at room temperature. 258 mg of sodium methoxide was added to the solution, followed by stirring for 30 minutes. Then,678 mg of methyl iodide was added dropwise to the solution and the reaction was continued for 1 hour. The reaction mixture was evaporated to dryness under reduced pressure, followed by addition of ethyl acetate and washing with water. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and the solvent was removed. The obtained crude product was recrystallized from ethanol to give 3-(p-methoxybenzoyl)-N-methylindole (compound 8) in the form of white platy crystals. (Yield: 94%).
