Procedure
NaH (180 mg of 60% oil dispersion, 4.5 mmol) is added to a solution of dibenzyl-[2-(5,7-difluoro-1H-indol-3-yl)-1(R)-methyl-ethyl]-amine (1.4 g, 3.6 mmol) in 20 ml dimethylformamide under N2 at 0° C. The resulting mixture is stirred for 20 minutes, then is allowed to warm to room temperature over 20 minutes. A 5 ml solution of iodomethane in dimethylformamide (7.2 mmol) is added dropwise and the reaction mixture is stirred for 1 hour. The reaction is quenched with cold aqueous NaHCO3, extracted with ethyl acetate, washed with brine, dried (Na2SO4), filtered, concentrated and is purified by flash chromatography (SiO2, ethyl acetate/hexane gradient) to yield 1.3 g of dibenzyl-[2-(5,7-difluoro-1-methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)-1(R)-methyl-ethyl]-amine (89%).
