Procedure

A solution of 1-benzenesulfonyl-2-(3-methyl-1-m-tolyl-but-1-enyl)-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine (2.99 g) in ethanol (50 mL) and tetrahydrofuran (100 mL) was treated with 10% aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (20 mL). The reaction was stirred at 85° C. for 14 h. The reaction mixture was cooled to 25° C. and concentrated in vacuo. Water (100 mL) was added to the residue, and the solution was extracted with ethyl acetate (2×100 mL). The organic layers were dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. A light yellow solid was obtained and washed with ethanol (20 mL), then dried to afford 2-(3-methyl-1-m-tolylbut-1-enyl)-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine (1.30 g, 77.8%) as a white solid: 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3): δ ppm 9.50 (s, 1H), 7.98-7.89 (m, 2H), 7.23-7.01 (m, 5H), 6.50 (s, 1H), 5.64 (d, 1H, J=10.2 Hz), 2.98-2.90 (m, 1H), 2.32 (s, 3H), 1.12 (s, 3H), 1.10 (s, 3H).
