The reaction was maintained at 50 psi H2(g) overnight at rt on the Fisher-Porter apparatus. The catalyst was removed by vacuum filtration, rinsed with ethyl acetate (200 mL), and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to provide 1-[6-amino-5-(methyloxy)-2,3-dihydro-1H-indol-1-yl]-2-methyl-1-oxo-2-propanol (0.7 g, 93%).
