Diisopropylethylamine → HCID 86620728, compound

A mixture of {[6-amino-3-cyano-2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]methyl}(triphenyl)phosphonium bromide (0.50 g, 0.92 mmol), 3,3,3-trifluoropropanoic acid (0.175 g, 1.40 mmol), 2,4,6-tripropyl-1,3,5,2,4,6-trioxatriphosphorinane 2,4,6-trioxide (2.60 g, 4.10 mmol, 50% in EtOAc) and DIEA (0.65 mL, 3.70 mmol) in THF (25 mL) was stirred at ambient temperature for 6 h. The mixture was concentrated and then diluted with anhydrous DMF (15 mL) and stirred at 100° C. for 18 h. The reaction was poured into water (100 mL) and extracted with Et2O (2×60 mL). The combined organic portions were washed with sat'd NaHCO3 (50 mL) and brine (50 mL). Drying (MgSO4), filtration, and concentration was followed by purification (SiO2, 30% EtOAc in hexanes) to afford 2-(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)-4-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-indole-5-carbonitrile (0.189 g, 70%) as a pale yellow solid:
