Reaction Steps

Preparation of the title compound was carried out according to General Method 7. A mixture of ethyl 8-bromo-3,4-dihydro-1H-pyrido[4,3-b]indole-2(5H)-carboxylate (See Example 7) (100 mg, 0.3 mmol), pyridine-3-boronic acid (76 mg, 0.62 mmol) and K3PO4 (120 mg, 0.57 mmol) in DMF:H2O (2:1, 3 ml) was purged with nitrogen for 30 minutes. PdCl2(PPh3)2 (25 mg, 0.04 mmol) was added and the reaction was heated at 100° C. for 4 h. The contents were concentrated in vacuo and the crude product was purified by silica gel chromatography (230-400 mesh) using ethyl acetate-hexane gradient to obtain 62 mg of ethyl 3,4-dihydro-8-(pyridin-3-yl)-1H-pyrido[4,3-b]indole-2(5H)-carboxylate. This intermediate (25 mg, 0.078 mmol), 2-methyl-5-vinylpyridine (0.120 ml, 1 mmol) and NaH (10 mg, 60% dispersion in oil, 0.02 mmol) were heated in DMSO (0.3 ml) at 100° C. for 48 h, after which methanol was added and the contents were concentrated to dryness. The resulting crude product was purified by silica gel chromatography (100-200 mesh or 230-400 mesh) using methanol-dichloromethane gradient to obtain 7 mg of 3,4-dihydro-5-(2-(6-methylpyridin-3-yl)ethyl)-8-(pyridin-3-yl)-1H-pyrido[4,3-b]indole-2(5H)-carboxylate.
