4-(5-Chloro-3-methyl-2-pyridin-3-yl-1H-indol-1-ylmethyl)-benzoic acid methyl ester (Example 11, 200 mg, 0.51 mmol) in methanol (5 mL) is added to 5M aqueous NaOH (1 mL, 5 mmol) and the mixture is stirred at room temperature for 5 h. Concentrated HCl (4.4 mL) is added to neutralize the reaction mixture and the solvents are removed in vacuo. The residue is redissolved in methanol and purified by reverse phase HPLC with Xbridge Shield RP18 column and a 0.1% NH4OH in acetonitrile gradient to afford 4-(5-chloro-3-methyl-2-pyridin-3-yl-1H-indol-1-ylmethyl)-benzoic acid. 1H NMR (400 MHz, MeOD) δ ppm 2.25 (s, 3H), 5.34 (s, 2H), 6.82 (d, J=8.1 Hz, 2H), 7.15 (dd, J=8.6, 2.0 Hz, 1H), 7.31 (d, J=8.6 Hz, 1H), 7.50 (dd, J=7.7, 4.9 Hz, 1H), 7.61 (d, J=2.0 Hz, 1H), 7.78-7.80 (m, 1H), 7.81 (d, J=8.1 Hz, 2H), 8.50 (s, 1H), 8.56 (br. s, 1H). HRMS (ESI) m/z 377.1072 [(M+H)+ Calcd for C22H18ClN2O2: 377.1057].
