Participants

Reaction Steps

This material was prepared from the reaction of 6-methoxy-1,2-dimethyl-1H-indole-3-carboxylic acid (1.12 g, 5.11 mmole) 16c with oxalyl chloride (0.682 ml, 13.6 mmole) and butan-1-amine (1.51 ml, 15.33 mmole) in a manner as previously described for example 16d to give a yellow solid (0.990 g, 71%). 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ8.01 (1H, d, J=8.6 Hz), 7.31 (1H, dd, J=2.3, 8.6 Hz), 7.25 (1H, d, J=2.3 Hz), 6.32 (1H, s), 4.34 (3H, s), 4.09 (3H, s), 3.95 (2H, m), 3.16 (3H, s), 2.10 (2H, m), 1.92 (2H, m), 1.44 (3H, t, J=7.4 Hz); ESIMS (MH+): 275.15.
