The reaction was carried out in N,N-dimethylformamide (5.0 mL) at reflux for 1.0 h with 2,3-dihydro-1H-carbazol-4(9H)-one (1.0 mmol) and N,N-dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal (10 mmol). After completion of the reaction, the mixture was cooled to room temperature and extracted with ethyl acetate (2 x 25 mL). The organic layer was separated and washed with saturated brine solution and subsequently dried over anhydrous Na2SO4. The solvent was removed by concentration under reduced pressure and the resulting solid was recrystallized from ethanol to give white acicular crystals in 71% yield, melting point 188-190 °C. IR (cm-1 ): 1695 (C=O). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ: 2.24-2.27 (t, 2H, CH2, J = 6.28 Hz), 2.56-2.59 (t, 2H, CH2, J = 6.0 Hz), 2.56-2.59 (t, 2H, CH2, J = 6.0 Hz).
