Reaction Steps

Preparation of the title compound was carried out according to General Method 2. 2-Ethyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-8-methyl-5-(2-(6-methylpyridin-3-yl)ethyl)-1H-pyrido[4,3-b]indole was prepared from 2-ethyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-8-methyl-1H-pyrido[4,3-b]indole (See Example 6) (214 mg, 1 mmol), 2-methyl-5-vinylpyridine (1 mL, 2.3 mmol) and NaH (120 mg, 3 mmol) in DMSO (4 ml) at 120° C. for 48 h to obtain 10 mg of 2-ethyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-8-methyl-5-(2-(6-methylpyridin-3-yl)ethyl)-1H-pyrido[4,3-b]indole after purification.
