Abstract

TC AC 28, 6-(1H-Indol-4-yl)-8-methoxy-1-methyl-4H-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a][1,4]benzodiazepine-4-acetic acid methyl ester, has been synthesized on a near-gram scale in seven steps with notable improvements in the reported poor-yielding last two steps enabling this key chemical probe compound to be available for researchers.
