To a solution of 6-nitroindole (4.05 g 25 mmol) in DMF (50 mL) was added K2CO3 (8.63 g, 62.5 mmol) and MeI (5.33 g, 37.5 mmol). After stirring at room temperature overnight, the mixture was poured into water and extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layers were dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated under vacuum to give the product 1-methyl-6-nitro-1H-indole (4.3 g, 98%).
