Yield:172595-71-0 94.2%

Reaction Conditions:

Stage #1: 5-Methoxyindole-3-carboxylic acidwith sodium hydride in N,N-dimethyl-formamide at 0 - 5; for 0.5 h;
Stage #2: methyl iodide in N,N-dimethyl-formamide at 0 - 20; for 2 h;

Steps:

3.1.2. General procedure for the preparation of 2b-h

General procedure: 60% NaH (0.91 g, 22.8 mmol) was added in portions to a solution of 1b-h (11.2 mmol) in dry DMF (35 mL) at 0-5 °C. After addition, the mixture was stirred for 30 min. Iodomethane (33.6 mmol) was then added at 0-5 °C and stirred for 2 h at room temperature. The mixture was then poured into H2O (120 mL) and the resulting solution was extracted with ethyl acetate (50 mL × 3). The organic phase was combined and washed with brine (150 mL × 3), dried over anhydrous Na2SO4 and concentrated under reduced pressure. The obtained residue was purified by flash column chromatography on silica gel to afford 2b-h.
