Procedure

To a mixture of 5-(5-(methylsulfonyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)-1H-indole-1-carboxylate (8 g, 21.11 mmol) in a sealed tube was added methylamine in DMSO (80 mL). The reaction was heated at 110° C. for 1 h and ice-cold water and EtOAc was added. The organic layer was separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with EtOAc. The combined organic layers were dried, filtered and concentrated. The residue was purified with silica gel chromatography (eluting with 40% EtOAc in Hex) to give 5-(1H-indol-5-yl)-N-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-amine (3.8 g, 78%). MS (ESI, pos. ion) m/z: 231 (M+1); 1H-NMR (DMSO-d6, 300 MHz): δ ppm 2.9 (s, 3H), 6.5 (d, 1H) 7.4 (d, 3H) 7.8 (m, 1H), 7.9 (s, 1H), 11.4 (s, 1H).
