Reaction Steps

1H NMR (500 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 8.80 (s, 1H), 8.59-8.43 (m, 1H), 8.31-8.18 (m, 1H), 8.13-8.04 (m, 1H), 4.93-4.80 (m, 1H), 4.23-4.03 (m, 2H), 3.06-2.85 (m, 2H), 2.09-1.96 (m, 2H), 1.94-1.80 (m, 2H), 1.45-1.36 (m, 9H) tert-butyl 4-(3-cyano-5-nitro-1H-indol-1-yl)piperidine-1-carboxylate (1.02 g, 2.75 mmol), Iron (0.923 g, 16.52 mmol), and ammonium chloride (1.031 g, 19.28 mmol) were suspended in a mixture of Ethanol (10 mL)/Water (10 mL). The reaction mixture was heated in oil bath at 85° C. for 20 min. The reaction mixture was filtered through Celite, then washed with water, MeOH and EtOAc. The combined filtrates were concentrated to almost dryness, then mixed with aq. NaHCO3 and EtOAc. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried over MgSO4, filtered and evaporated to dryness to give tert-butyl 4-(5-amino-3-cyano-1H-indol-1-yl)piperidine-1-carboxylate (200 mg).
