A stirred suspension of 6 (7.00 g, 20.16 mmol) and powdered NaN3 (3.28 g, 50.44 mmol) in CH2'Cl2 (100 mL) was treated with pyridine (3.99 g, 50.44 mmol), then cooled to -5° C. and treated in one portion with N,N-dimethyl(chlorosulfonyl)methaniminium chloride [SOCl2 /DMF adduct] (4.26 g, 22.18 mmol). After stirring at 20° C. for 2 h, the mixture was washed twice with water, dried (Na2SO4) and filtered through a short column of silica gel, eluting with further CH2Cl2 (400 mL). Removal of the solvent under reduced pressure below 30° C. gave the crude carbonyl azide (7), which was immediately heated with stirring in dry toluene (65 mL) under reflux for 8 min. The mixture was cooled to 0° C. to complete precipitation of the product, which was collected and washed with toluene. This was stirred as a suspension in CH2Cl2 (25 mL) for 10 min at 20° C., diluted with iPr2O, and the resulting solid collected to give 1,1-di(methoxycarbonyl)-5-nitro-1,2-dihydro-3H-benz[e]indole-2one (8) (5.60 g, 81%). A sample crystallised from CH2Cl2 had mp 218-222° C.
