Procedure
To a solution of (1-Methanesulfonyl-5-methoxy-2-methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)-methanol (1.53 g, 5.68 mmol) in anhydrous ethyl ether (50 ml) and tetrahydrofuran (20 ml) at 0° C. under N2 was added a solution of phosphorus tribromide (7.5 ml, 1 M in dichloromethane). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 8 hours and concentrated under reduced pressure to give 3-bromomethyl-1-methane sulfonyl-5-methoxy-2-methyl-1H-indole as white solid. 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ:2.57 (s, 3H), 3.04(s, 3H), 3.89 (s, 3H), 4.63 (s, 2H), 6.93 (dd, 1H, J=9.1 Hz, 2.5 Hz), 7.04 (d, 1H, J=2.5 Hz), 7.89 (d, 1H, J=9.1 Hz).
