Reaction Steps

To a degassed solution of 5-(3-bromophenyl)-2,8-dimethyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-pyrido[4,3-b]indole (100 mg, 0.281 mmol), 1-methyl-2-pyrroleboronic acid pinacol ester (96.8 mg, 0.56 mmol) and K2CO3 (116 mg, 0.84 mmol) in DME (4 mL)-water (2 mL) was added Pd(PPh3)4 (16 mg, 0.014 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at 90° C. for 45 min. The reaction mixture concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was dissolved in EtOAc (50 mL) and washed with water (20 mL). The organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure to afford crude material, which was purified by reverse phase HPLC to yield 2,8-dimethyl-5-(3-(1-methyl-1H-pyrrol-2-yl)phenyl)-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-pyrido[4,3-b]indole. 1H NMR (TFA salt, CD3OD) d (ppm): 7.61 (dd, 1H), 7.57 (d, 1H), 7.4 (s, 1H), 7.37 (m, 2H), 7.17 (d, 1H), 7.07 (d, 1H), 6.8 (d, 1H), 6.21 (d, 1H), 6.1 (dd, 1H), 4.76 (m, 1H), 4.4 (m, 1H), 3.8 (m, 1H), 3.7 (m, 3H), 3.57 (m, 1H), 3.2 (m, 4H), 3.03 (m, 1H), 2.42 (s, 3H).
