tert-Butyl 7-bromo-3,4-dihydro-1H-pyrido[3,4-b]indole-2(9H)-carboxylate (1.96 g, 5.58 mmol) was dissolved in DMF (20 mL), and sodium hydride (60% weight dispersion in mineral oil, 330 mg, 8.37 mmol) was added. After 30 minutes, methyl iodide (0.52 mL, 8.4 mmol) was added, and the reaction stirred for a further 2 h. The mixture was diluted with methylene chloride and washed with 5% lithium chloride solution (5×), dried and concentrated. Purification by flash column chromatography (silica gel, hexanes/ethyl acetate, 97:3 to 75:25) gave the title compound (1.75 g, 86%) as a white powder: 1H NMR (500 MHz, CD3OD) δ 7.41 (d, J=1.5 Hz, 1H), 7.32 (d, J=8.3 Hz, 1H), 7.18 (dd, J=8.4, 1.6 Hz, 1H), 4.60 (br s, 2H), 3.73 (br s, 2H), 3.59 (s, 3H), 2.76 (br s, 2H), 1.50 (s, 9H).
