Reaction Steps

To a solution of the intermediate (2.65 g, 12.5 mmol) obtained above and triisopropyl borate (3.38 g, 4.14 mL, 18.8 mmol) in dry THF (18 mL) at −78° C. is added LDA (10 mL, 1.5 M, 15.0 mmol). The mixture is stirred at −78° C. for 15 min after the addition, then slowly brought to room temperature and stirred for 30 min. It is then cooled at −78° C. and followed by the addition of 4-iodoaniline (3.29 g, 15.0 mmol), PdCl2(dppf) (0.46 g, 0.6 mmol), DMF (40 mL) and K2CO3 (18.8 mL, 2.0 M, 37.6 mmol). The mixture is brought to room temperature slowly and stirred overnight and then poured into ice-water (400 mL). The precipitate is collected and washed with water, and after drying, is chromatographed (silica gel, EtOAc/DCM, 0.5/9.5) to furnish 2-(4-aminophenyl)-1-cyclopropyl-6-methoxyindole-3-carbonitrile (2.84 g, 75%).
