Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: To a stirred solution of methyl 6-chloroindole-2-carboxylate (9.8 g, 46.7 mmol) (D. Knittel, Synthesis, 1985, 2, 186-188) in DMF (80 mL) under Ar at ambient temperature was added sodium hydride (60%; 2.80 g, 70 mmol) portionwise over 10 min. After 30 min, chloroacetonitrile (5.9 mL, 93.2 mmol) was added dropwise and the resultant mixture was heated at 75° C. (bath temp.) for 45 min, then allowed to cool. The reaction mixture was poured onto ice (500 mL) and the solid product was filtered, washed with ice-cold water (100 mL), and triturated with refluxing ethanol (150 mL). After allowing to cool to ambient temperature, then cooling in ice, the solid product was filtered-off and washed with ice-cold ethanol (50 mL) to afford the title compound (9.49 g, 82%) as a light grey solid: mp 177-8° C.; IR νmax (Nujol)/cm−1; 3094, 2955, 2925, 2854, 1713, 1613, 1568, 1527, 1519, 1448, 1421, 1398, 1378, 1336, 1306, 1260, 1150, 1108, 1060, 943, 908, 834, 802, 761, 737, 682, 618, 597, 518 and 478; NMR δH (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) 3.95 (3H, s), 5.56 (2H, s), 7.22 (1H, dd, J 8.5, 2 Hz), 7.34 (1H, d, J 1 Hz), 7.43 (1H, br s) and 7.62 (1H, d, J 8.5 Hz). to cool The reaction mixture was poured onto ice (500 mL) the solid product was filtered washed with ice-cold water (100 mL) triturated with refluxing ethanol (150 mL) cooling in ice washed with ice-cold ethanol (50 mL)
