A mixture of indole (500 mg, 4.27 mmol), copper(I) iodide (122 mg, 0.64 mmol), cesium carbonate (1.9 g, 6 mmol) and phenyliodide (470 μL, 4.2 mmol) in anhydrous N,N-dimethylformamide (10 mL) was refluxed for 24 hours under a nitrogen atmosphere. The reaction mixture was then filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was partitioned between dichloromethane (30 mL) and water (10 mL). The organic layer was washed with water (2×10 mL), brine (10 mL), dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and evaporated to dryness. The residue was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel (cyclohexane/ethyl acetate 95/5) to afford the desired product (5a) as a yellow oil (700 mg, 3.62 mmol, 86%).
