Procedure

A solution of 2-[1,4]diazepan-1-yl-1-phenyl-1H-indole-3-carboxaldehyde (438 mg, 1.37 mmol), epibromohydrin (188 mg, 1.37 mmol) and potassium carbonate (758 mg, 5.49 mmol) in acetonitrile (20 mL) is refluxed for 2.5 hr. The reaction mixture is cooled, the solvent is removed and the residue is purified by chromatography eluting with dichloromethane-1 to 5% methanol. Fractions containing product are combined and concentrated to afford 2-(4-oxiranylmethyl-[1,4]diazepan-1-yl)-1-phenyl-1H-indole-3-carboxaldehyde (41% yield) as a yellow solid. LC/MS: 376 (M+H), RT 2.65 min; NMR (CDCl3): 10.28 (1H, s), 8.26 (1H, d), 7.43-7.65 (3H, m), 7.17-7.42 (3H, m), 7.13(1H, t), 6.96 (1H, d), 3.49 (4H, m), 3.03 (1H, m), 2.56-2.86 (4H, m), 2.30-2.50 (2H, m), 1.74(2H, m), 1.56 (2H, s).
