A mixture of 7-nitroindole-2-carboxylic acid (4.38 g) and 1-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (4.89 g) in dichloromethane (50 mL) was treated with piperazine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (1.63 g) and stirred at ambient temperature for 16 h. The reaction mixture was poured into in dichloromethane (20 mL), washed with water, saturated sodium hydrogencarbonate solution and then brine, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified via silica gel chromatography (0-5% methanol/dichloromethane) to give 4-(7-Nitro-1H-indole-2-carbonyl)-piperazine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (2.17 g). This material (1.69 g) was dissolved in CH3OH (50 mL). At room temperature, ammonium formate (2.85 g) was added, followed by 10% palladium on carbon (0.47 g). The reaction mixture was heated to reflux for forty min, cooled and filtered through celite pad. The filtrate was concentrated and the residue was purified via silica gel chromatography (0-10% methanol/dichloromethane) to give 4-(7-Amino-1H-indole-2-carbonyl)-piperazine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (1.34 g). This material (1.3 g) was treated with 20% trifluoroacetic acid/dichloromethane (50 mL) and stirred at ambient temperature for 1 h. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure to afford (7-Amino-1H-indol-2-yl)-piperazin-1-yl-methanone trifluoroacetate salt. This intermediate was dissolved in dichloromethane (100 mL), washed with saturated sodium hydrogencarbonate solution and then brine, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified via silica gel chromatography (0-10% 2M ammonia in methanol/dichloromethane) to give the title compound (0.824 g). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3/CD3OD): δ 7.09 (d, J=7.83 Hz, 1H), 6.95 (t, J=7.63 Hz, 1H), 6.72 (s, 1H), 6.60 (d, J=7.63 Hz, 1H), 4.20 (br s, 4H), 3.88 (br s, 4H), 2.94 (t, J=5.09 Hz, 3H). MS (electrospray): exact mass calculated for C13H16N4O, 244.13; m/z found, 245.1 [M+H]+.
