Reaction Steps

N-[2-(6-Amino-7-methoxy-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-ylidene)ethyl]acetamide (2.62 g, 10.7 mmol) was dissolved in methanol (50 mL), a 10% palladium-carbon powder (500 mg) was added, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 5 hr under a hydrogen atmosphere. The catalyst was filtered off using celite, and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to give the title compound (2.56 g, yield 96%).
