Reaction Steps

Sodium hydride (20 mg) was added to a stirred solution of ethyl N-(3,4-dichlorobenzyl)-4-mercaptoindole-2-carboxylate (170 mg) in DMF (7.5 ml). After 1 hour, 3-hydroxyprop-1-yl bromide (89 mg) was added and stirring continued for 16 hours. The reaction mixture was partitioned between water and ethyl acetate and combined organic extracts were dried (MgSO4), concentrated in vacuo and the residue purified by column chromatography using dichloromethane as eluent to give the product as a yellow gum (30 mg, 14%); M/z (+) 480.1 (MH+).
