Procedure

10% palladium-carbon (water content: 50%, 12.2 mg) was added to a solution of 1-(1H-indol-3-yl)ethanone oxime (0.20 g) obtained as above and acetic acid (0.7 mL) in ethanol (7 mL) at room temperature. The reaction mixture was stirred in a hydrogen stream at room temperature for 10 hours, and then filtered on a celite. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was extracted with chloroform. The organic layer was washed sequentially with a 1 N aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide and brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (Carrier: Chromatorex™ NH, elution solvent:chloroform-methanol system) to obtain 0.137 g of the title compound.
