Participants

Reaction Steps

53 mg (0.216 mmol) of 5-(1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin-3-yl)isoquinoline are added to a suspension, kept under an argon atmosphere, of 26 mg (0.65 mmol) of sodium hydride, (60% suspension in paraffin oil) in 1 ml of DMF, and the reaction mixture is stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. 18 μl (0.65 mmol) of iodomethane are then added, and the reaction mixture is stirred at room temperature for a further 17 hours. 0.5 ml of methanol is then added, and the reaction mixture is subsequently evaporated in vacuo. The residue is chromatographed on a silica-gel column with dichloromethane/methanol as eluent, giving 5-(1-methyl-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin-3-yl)isoquinoline as colourless solid; MS (EI): 259 [M]+;
