Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-2,8-dimethyl-5-(prop-2-ynyl)-1H-pyrido[4,3-b]indole (obtained by General Method 8; p-tolylhydrazine hydrochloride (600 mg, 3.7 mmol), propargyl bromide (80 wt % solution in toluene, 0.34 ml, 3.7 mmol), triethyl amine (1.5 ml, 11.3 mmol) and N-methyl-4-piperidone hydrochloride (316 mg, 2.1 mmol) were taken in ethanol (15 ml) to obtain 80 mg of 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-2,8-dimethyl-5-(prop-2-ynyl)-1H-pyrido[4,3-b]indole after purification on silica gel (230-400 mesh) chromatography eluting with methanol-dichloromethane gradient) (150 mg, 0.6 mmol), 2-bromopyridine (0.06 ml, 0.6 mmol), dichlorobis(triphenylphosphine) palladium (8 mg, 0.012 mmol), CuI (1 mg, 0.006 mmol), and triethylamine (0.01 ml 0.071 mmol) in acetonitrile (5 ml) was heated at 80° C. for 1.5 h to obtain 108 mg of 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-2,8-dimethyl-5-(3-(pyridin-2-yl)prop-2-ynyl)-1H-pyrido[4,3-b]indole after purification by reverse-phase chromatography (C-18, 500 mm×50 mm, Mobile Phase A=0.05% TFA in water, B=0.05% TFA in acetonitrile, Gradient: 10% B to 80% B in 30 min, injection vol. 5 mL).
