Reaction Steps

2-(4-Aminophenylethynyl)-1-ethyl-6-methoxy-1H-indole-3-carbonitrile (100 mg, 0.32 mmol), prepared as described in Example 1H, is suspended in toluene (600 μL). 2-Chloroethyl isocyanate (32 μL, 0.37 mmol) is added, and the mixture is heated at 100° C. for 5 h. The reaction mixture is then cooled, diluted in acetone, and absorbed onto silica. Purification by column chromatography (5-10% EtOAc in CH2Cl2) yields 1-(2-chloro-ethyl)-3-[4-(3-cyano-1-ethyl-6-methoxy-1H-indol-2-ylethynyl)-phenyl]urea (73 mg, 54%) as a yellow solid.
