Reaction Steps

AcCl (0.03 mL, 0.4 mmol) was added to a solution of 1-(5-methyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-pyrido[4,3-b]indol-7-yl)-4-(5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-2-yl)pyridin-2(1H)-one (125 mg, 0.294 mmol), DMAP (7 mg, 0.06 mmol) and Et3N (0.08 mL, 0.6 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (10 mL) under N2, and the resulting solution was stirred at 25° C. for 17 h. H2O was added to the solution, and the phases were separated. The organic phase was washed with saturated NH4Cl solution, dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated under reduced pressure. Flash chromatography (silica gel, (1:1 EtOAc/hexanes)/(9:0.9:0.1 CH2Cl2/MeOH/NH4OH), 100:0 to 0:100) afforded the title compound (116 mg, 84%) as a mixture of rotomers as a white powder: mp 232-236° C.; 1H NMR (500 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 9.15 (s, 1H), 8.38 (d, J=8.3 Hz, 1H), 8.35 (d, J=8.3 Hz, 1H), 7.84 (d, J=7.5 Hz, 1H), 7.59-7.54 (m, 2H), 7.28 (d, J=1.5 Hz, 1H), 7.08-7.03 (m, 2H), 4.70 (s, 0.8H), 4.68 (s, 1.2H), 3.88 (t, J=5.5 Hz, 0.8H), 3.83 (t, J=5.5 Hz, 1.2 H), 3.67 (s, 3H), 2.97-2.91 (m, 1.2H), 2.86-2.81 (m, 0.8H), 2.15 (s, 1.8H), 2.13 (s, 1.2H); ESI MS m/z 467 [M+H]+.
