Procedure

(Z)-4-azido-1,3-dihydro-3-[(4-methyl-1H-imidazol-5-yl)methylene]-5-nitro-2H-indol-2-one (150 mg, 0.48 mmol) (from Example 44 above) was suspended in THF (40 mL) at r.t. Ammonium hydroxide was added (0.15 mL), followed by a catalytic amount of poisoned platinum on carbon (50 mg, 5% Pt/C•½S) (Engelhard Ind.). The reaction mixture was hydrogenated in a Parr bomb under 50 psi of hydrogen for 16 h. The mixture was filtered through a cake of Celite®, and the cake was washed twice with THF. The crude material was purified by flash chromatography on Silica Gel (230-400 mesh, eluted with 1% MeOH/1% ET3N in THF) to afford (Z)-4,5-diamino-1,3-dihydro-3-[(4-methyl-1H-imidazol-5-yl)methylene]-2H-indol-2-one as a dark red solid. (Yield 52 mg, 42%).
