Procedure
A mixture of Methyl 3-[2-(Dimethylamino)ethyl]-1H-indole-5-propanoate (4.6 g) and lithium hydroxide hydrate (0.7 g) in aqueous methanol (1:1) (80 ml) was stirred under reflux for 4.5 h. The solvent was removed by evaporation to leave a foam which was purified by flash chromatography (E). Evaporation of the appropriate fractions gave a solid which was triturated with ether to present the title compound as a powder (2.92 g) m.p. 195°-200°.
