Procedure
A mixture of 2,3-dihydro-1-(2-propenyl)-1H-indole (1.59 g), tetralin (25 ml) and borontrifluoride etherate (1.3 ml) was heated at 200° C. for 1.5 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature then quenched with 10% sodium carbonate and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was separated, washed with brine, dried and evaporated. The residue was chromatographed over silica (ethyl acetate-hexane 15:85) affording 1.23 g of the desired product (77% yield).
