To 5-phenylmethoxyindole (50 g) in 300 ml of dimethylformamide at ice bath temperature was added milled potassium hydroxide (62.72 g). Then hydroxylamine-O-sulfonic acid (32.93 g) was added portionwise, keeping the internal temperature below 20° C. After the addition was complete, the mixture was stirred for one hour, then poured into water and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with water and dried (sat. NaCl, anhy. MgSO4). After filtration, the solvent was evaporated to yield an oil (71 g), which was eluted with dichloromethane on silica gel columns via HPLC. The desired fractions were concentrated to yield a solid (21.15 g). Of this material, 3.0 g was triturated with ether to yield a solid, 2.4 g, m.p. 126°-128° C.
