5-(t-Butyloxycarbonylamino)-1,2,3,3a,8,8a-hexahydro-1,3a,8-trimethylpyrrolo[2,3-b]indole (1.7 g) was dissolved in dry THF (15 ml) under nitrogen and cooled to -78° C. in a dry ice/acetone bath. A 1M solution of lithium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide (7.2 ml) in THF was added via a syringe. The solution was stirred at -78° C. for 15 minutes, warmed to room temperature and again cooled to -78° C. before the addition of dimethylsulfate (0.74 g) in THF (5 ml) via syringe. The mixture was stirred for 1 hour and allowed to warm to ambient temperature and water was added in order to quench the reaction. Ethyl acetate (100 ml) was added and the mixture was washed with brine (20 ml), dried (Na2SO4), concentrated and purified by flash chromatography (eluting with 15% MeOH/EtOAc). The pure fractions were concentrated to give 5-(t-butoxycarbonyl-N-methylamino)-1,2,3,3a,8,8a-hexahydro-1,3a,8-trimethylpyrrolo[2,3-b]indole (0.42 g).
