tert-Butyl 6-[2-(phenylsulfinyl)ethyl]-1,4,5,6-tetrahydroazepino[4,5-b]indole-3(2H)-carboxylate was dissolved in trifluoroacetic acid and stirred for 5 min. The reaction mixture was concentrated to dryness, and the residue was dissolved in 10% aqueous acetic acid. This aqueous solution was extracted with CH2Cl2 (3×). The aqueous layer was adjusted to pH 10 with NaOH, then extracted with EtOAc (3×). The combined EtOAc extracts was dried over MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated. The product was chromatographed (SiO2, 10% methanol in CH2Cl2) to give 6-[2-(phenylsulfinyl)ethyl]-1,2,3,4,5,6-hexahydroazepino[4,5-b]indole (0.116 g) in 70% yield as a white solid. 1H NMR (300 MHz, CD3OD) δ 3.09-3.24, 3.28-3.44, 4.40, 4.62, 7.05, 7.13, 7.25, 7.43, 7.50-7.59; 13C NMR (75 MHz, CD3OD) δ 22.79, 24.84, 37.04, 46.77, 48.66, 56.93, 110.42, 112.81, 116.30, 118.82, 120.17, 120.93, 122.91, 125.18, 128.93, 130.72, 132.72, 136.17, 136.92, 143.37.
