Procedure

The 1-benzyloxymethyl-1H-indole-5-carboxylic acid (380 mg) obtained in Intermediate Example 47 was suspended in ethanol (6.5 ml). 10% Palladium on carbon (190 mg) was added thereto and stirred for 47 hours at 60° C. in a hydrogen atmosphere. Insoluble matter was removed by filtration, and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by column chromatography (eluting solvent; dichloromethane:methanol 50:1) to give the title compound (120 mg, Y.:48%).
