NaH(8.2mm) in N,N-dimethylformamide ("DMF") (20 mL) was cooled to 0° C., then treated with a solution of the known 1H-indole-6-methanol (1 g,6.8 mm) in DMF(8 mL). After stirring for 1 hour at 0° C., methyl iodide ("MeI") (0.51 mL, 8.2 mm) dissolved in DMF (2 mL) was added, and the mixture was stirred at 0° C. overnight, then poured into ice/H2O (250 ml) and extracted with EtOAc(50 mL×3). The organic fraction was dried over MgSO4, filtered, evaporated and purified by flash column chromatography to afford 1-methyl-1H-indole-6-methanol (0.82 g. 75%). This product (1-methyl-1H-indole-6-methanol, 1 g, 6.2 mm) was dissolved in a mixture of pyridine (5 mL) and acetic anhydride (Ac2O) (5 mL) and stirred at room temperature overnight. The solvent was evaporated, and the residue purified by flash column chromatography to afford 1.09 g of Acetic acid 1-methyl-1H-indol-6-yl methyl ester.
