Procedure
2-(3,5-Dimethylisoxazol-4-yl)-1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1H-indole-3-carbonyl chloride was dissolved in 0.5 ml of dry MeOH and the mixture was cooled on an ice-bath. Fresh hydroxylamine was prepared by pouring a MeOH solution (0.3 ml) of hydroxylamine hydrochloride (12 mg, 0.17 mmol) into a MeOH solution (0.3 ml) of KOH (19 mg, 0.33 mmol). The mixture was filtered through a syringe filter into the cooled acid chloride solution. After 5 min, the cooling bath was removed and the reaction was allowed to warm to RT and was stirred for 10 min Water, 1M HCl and EtOAc were added and the phases were separated. After evaporation of the solvents, the residue was purified by preparative HPLC to provide methyl 2-(3,5-dimethylisoxazol-4-yl)-1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1H-indole-3-carboxylate in 16% yield. ES/MS m/z: 363.11 (M+H), 361.13 (M−H); 1H NMR (methanol-d4, 500 MHz): 8.21 (m, 1H), 7.32-7.26 (m, 2H), 7.20 (m, 1H), 7.13 (br s, 1H), 7.01 (br s, 1H), 6.88 (m, 2H), 3.83 (s, 3H), 2.12 (s, 3H) and 2.03 (s, 3H).
