To a solution of 5-methoxyindole (1.0 g, 6.79 mmol) in DMC (10 mL), DABCO (0.076 g, 0.68 mmol) is added followed by DMF (2 mL). The resulting solution is heated to 90-95° C. for 7 h. The reaction is cooled to RT, and diluted with EtOAc (40 mL) and H2O (40 mL). The organic layer is separated and washed in sequence with H2O (50 mL), 10% aqueous citric acid (2×40 mL) and H2O (4×40 mL). The organic layer is dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated under vacuum to give 5-methoxy-1-methylindole (about 1.06 g, 97%) as a solid: 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ7.21 (d, 1H), 7.09 (d, 1H), 7.00 (d, 1H), 6.87 (dd, 1H) 6.39 (d, 1H), 3.84 (s, 3H), 3.73 (s, 3H); 13C NMR (CDCl3) δ153.9, 132.1, 129.3, 128.7, 111.8, 109.9, 102.4, 100.3, 55.9, 32.9; MS m/z 161 [M+1]+.
