Procedure

For the preparation of 9-fluoro-3-(4-fluoro-benzoyl)-1,1-dimethyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydro-azepino[4,5-b]indole-5-carboxylic acid ethyl ester, to a stirred solution of 9-amino-3-(4-fluoro-benzoyl)-1,1-dimethyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydro-azepino[4,5-b]indole-5-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (Example 41C) (0.024 g, 0.055 mmol) in 1.0 mL of MeCN was added 11 μL of 48% HBF4 water solution at ±10° C. under N2 for 10 minutes. 9 μL of tBuONO (90%, 0.066 mmol) was added to the reaction mixture and stirred at ±10° C. for 20 minutes. The reaction mixture was warmed to room temperature for 1 hour and monitored by LC-MS. The solvents were removed in vacuo, and the residue was washed with Et2O/hexane (1:1) once and benzene twice. After having dried in high vacuo for several hours, a brown solid was obtained. The solid in 1.5 mL of xylenes was heated at 145° C. reflux under N2 for 1 hour and then concentrated. The crude product was purified by flash chromatograph on silica gel, eluting with EtOAc-hexane (0-30%) to yield the title compound (0.012 g) as a light yellow solid. 1H-NMR (CDCl3): δ10.68 (1H, s), 7.83 (1H, s), 7.62 (2H, m), 7.44 (1H, dd), 7.29 (1H, m), 7.13 (2H, m), 6.93 (1H, m), 4.23 (2H, q), 1.56 (6H, s), 1.22 (3H, t). MS (ESI): 425 (MH+).
