Reaction Steps

This compound was prepared following the procedure described in example 87 (part E) starting with 1.7 g (5 mmol) of 5-methoxy-3-piperidin-4-yl-1-(2-thiophen-3-yl-ethyl)-1H-indole and 1.2 g (5.5 mmol) of 2-(2-chloro-ethoxy)-benzoic acid methyl ester. After standard work-up and purification by flash chromatography, 0.6 g (24% of yield) of the expected acid were obtained.
