Reaction Steps

Perchloric acid (2 drops) and active palladium-on-charcoal (130 mg) are added to a solution of 1 -(2-acetyl-6-methoxy-1 -methyl-2,3,4,9-tetrahydro- 1H-β-carbolin-7-yl)-1-ethanone (0.9 g) in ethyl acetate (150 mL). The mixture is stirred under a hydrogen atmosphere for 72 h. After filtration and evaporation of the solvent, the product is recrystallized from ethanol and 1-(7-ethyl-6-methoxy-1-methyl-2,3,4,9-tetrahydro-1H-β-carbolin-2-yl)-1-ethanone is obtained (80%).
