1H-Indole-7-carboxylic acid → 1H-Indole-7-carboxylic acid (4-tert-butyl-benzyl)-[2-(2,6-dichloro-phenyl)-ethyl]-amide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 48 mg (0.3 mmol) of 1H-indole-7-carboxylic acid and 96 mg of TBTU (0.3 mmol) in 4 ml DMF, were added 0.26 ml (1.5 mmol) of N,N-diisopropylethyl amine. After stirring for 5 min at rt, 106 mg (0.3 mmol) (4-tert-butyl-benzyl)-[2-(2,6-dichloro-phenyl)-ethyl]-amine in 1 ml DMF was added. After stirring for 2 h at rt, the reaction mixture was diluted with 50 ml water and extracted with 2×50 ml EtOAc. The combined organic phases were washed with water and brine, dried with magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was crystallized from diethylether, leading to 123 mg white solid (85%). MS (ISP) 479.5 (M+H)+.
