Procedure

A solution of 4-chloro-9-(2-trimethylsilanyl-ethoxymethyl)-9H-dipyrido[2,3-b;4′,3′-d]pyrrole-6-carbonitrile-7-oxide (1.3 g, 3.52 mmol) in dichloromethane (11 mL) was treated with phosphorus trichloride (2N solution in dichloromethane, 1.9 mL, 3.9 mmol) and the reaction mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 2 hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo and purified by flash chromatography (silica, 40 g, ISCO, 0-40% ethyl acetate in heptane) to afford the title compound as a white solid (1.2 g, 93%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 9.20 (d, J=0.9, 1H), 8.74 (d, J=0.9, 1H), 8.60 (d, J=5.3, 1H), 7.39 (d, J=5.3, 1H), 6.02 (s, 2H), 3.60 (t, J=8.0, 2H), 0.94 (t, J=8.0, 2H), −0.08 (s, 9H).
