The reaction mixture was then stirred at room temperature for 24 hours. The reaction mixture was poured in 1N HCl (30 ml) under stirring at 0° C. The crystals thus precipitated were collected by filtration, whereby 3-chloro-4-(N-(3-indolylcarbonyl)amino)phenylacetic acid (1.05 g, 91%) was obtained as a colorless solid.
