Procedure
3′-Methoxy-3-nitrobiphenyl-4-acetic acid (5:2 g) was dissolved in methanol and hydrogenated over 0.8 g 10% palladium on carbon for 3 hours at room temperature. The catalyst was removed by filtration, washed with methanol and the filtrates combined and concentrated to give a brown solid. The solid was chromatographed on silica gel in ethyl acetate:hexane:acetic acid 33:66:1 to give 3.0 g (75% yield based on 4-fluoro-3′-methoxy-3-nitrobiphenyl) of 6-(3-methoxypheny)-2-oxindole as a pink solid.
