To a solution of 5-fluoro-indol-3-acetic acid (4.3 g, 0.022 mol) in anhydrous THF (35 ml) was added LiAlH4(1.0M, 33 ml, 0.033 mol) at 0° C. The mixture was allowed to stir for 0.5 hours and, then quenched by saturated NH4Cl solution. The mixture was then filtered through celite. The filtrate was washed with IN NaOH (3×100 ml) and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×100 ml). The organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered, and the solvent was removed under vacuum. Chromatography (10% methanol-methylene chloride) afforded 4.04 g (100%) of product as an off-white solid: mp 59-61° C.
