Procedure
A solution of the 9-[(phenyl)methyl]-4-hydroxy-5-carbomethoxy carbazole (200 mg, 0.6 mM) in 4 mL MeOH and 40 mL concentrated aqueous ammonium hydroxide was sonicated for 30 h at 40-50° C. The mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate and acidified to pH 1 with 5 N HCl. The aqueous layer was extracted three times with ethyl acetate. The combined organic extracts were washed with saturated brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated. The residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (elution with gradient methylene chloride/ethyl acetate) to afford 50 mg (26%) of the 9-[(phenyl)methyl]-4-hydroxy-5-carbamoyl carbazole as a white solid. 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) δ10.5 (s, 1H), 8.8 (br s, 1H), 8.4 (br s, 1H), 7.85 (dd, 1H, J=1 and 8 Hz), 7.5-7.1 (m, 9H), 6.6 (d, 1H, J=8 Hz), and 5.8 (s, 2H).
