Procedure

In an oven dried, 250 mL round bottom flask flushed with argon, compound 33 (400 mg, 2.74 mmol, 146.19 MW) was dissolved in 90% AcOH (20 mL). After complete solvation, the reaction was placed at 0° C. and protected from light with foil. NaNO2 (1.1×, 3.01 mmol, 208 mg, 69.00 MW) dissolved in cold H2O (2 mL) was added dropwise and stirred for ten minutes. NaN3 (1.1×, 3.01 mmol, 196 mg, 65.01 MW) dissolved in cold H2O (2 mL) was added dropwise. After one hour the reaction was poured into water (40 mL), which was extracted 3 times with CH2Cl2 (40 mL each). The extracts were washed with sodium bicarbonate and brine (100 mL each), dried with sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated. Purification by silica flash chromatography (100% CH2Cl2) yielded the azide as a light brown solid (310 mg, 66%). 1H NMR (600 MHz, d6-DMSO): δ 11.025 (s, 1H, N—H), 7.295-7.281 (d, J=8.4, 1H, indole-7H), 7.131-7.127 (d, J=2.4, 1H, indole-4H), 6.737-6.719 (dd, J1=8.4, J2=2.4, 1H, indole-6H), 6.108-6.106 (d, J=1.2, 1H, indole-3H), 2.369 (s, 1H, methyl). 13C NMR (150 MHz, d6-DMSO): δ 137.5, 133.9, 130.0, 129.5, 111.7, 111.6, 108.5, 99.0, 13.4. Melting point: 57-60° C. TLC (in 1:1 ethyl acetate:hexanes) Rf=0.56. IR (film): 3409 cm−1, 2111 (aryl-azide). Elemental analysis calculated for C9H8N4: C, 62.78; H, 4.68; N, 32.54. found: C, 62.95; H, 4.68; N, 32.53.
