Procedure

A mixture of 150 mg (0.61 mmol) of 6-methoxycarbonyl-1-ethyl-1H-indole-3-carboxamide in diglyme (3.6 mL), and bromoacetaldehyde dimethyl acetal (430 μL, 3.7 mmol) is heated at 125° C. for 2 h. The reaction mixture is cooled and partitioned in H2O and EtOAc. The organic phase is dried and concentrated and the product is purified by silica gel chromatography (EtOAc/CH2Cl2 5-10%). The product containing fractions are combined and concentrated and the solid is triturated with hexanes to yield methyl 1-ethyl-3-oxazol-2-yl-1H-indole-6-carboxylate (75 mg, 46%) as a yellow solid.
