Dimethylformamide (1 mL) was cooled to 0° C. Phosphorus oxychloride (0.25 mL) was added and the reaction mixture was stirred for 10 minutes. A solution of 2-ethyl-5-methoxyindole (226 mg, 1.7 mmol) in dimethylformamide (2 mL) was added to the reaction mixture dropwise over 10 minutes. The solution was stirred for an additional 40 minutes. The reaction mixture was added to ice cold 1 N NaOH (25 mL) and stirred for 10 minutes. The precipitate was collected, washed with cold water and dried overnight in a vacuum desiccator set at 40° C. equipped to an oil driven vacuum pump yielding a white solid (213 mg, 62%): TLC Rf 0.55 in 4:1 ethyl acetate/hexanes. Melting point=211-212° C. 1H NMR (600 MHz, CDCl3) δ 11.84 (s, 1H), 10.04 (s, 1H), 7.58 (d, 1H, J=2.4 Hz), 7.30-7.28 (d, 1H, J=9 Hz), 6.81-6.79 (dd, 1H, J1=9 Hz, J2=2.4 Hz), 3.77 (s, 3H), 3.08-3.04 (q, 2H, J=7.8 Hz), 1.33-1.28 (t, 3H, J=7.8 Hz). 13C NMR (150 MHz, CDCl3) δ 183.86, 155.48, 153.86, 130.09, 126.33, 112.68, 112.20, 111.95, 102.41, 55.25, 18.92, 14.54.
