Reaction Steps

To a mixture of acetic acid (50 ml) and water (15 ml), was added 8,9-dihydro-10-methyl-7-[(1-trityl-1H-imidazol-4-yl)methyl]pyrido[1,2-a]indol-6(7H)-one (4.93 g), and stirred at 60° C. for 2 hours. After being cooled, the precipitates were filtered off. The filtrate was neutralized with aqueous 8N-sodium hydroxide solution, and extracted with chloroform. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate, and evaporated. The residue was crystallized from diisopropyl ether-ethyl acetate (5:1, V/V) to give 8,9-dihydro-7-[(1H-imidazol-4-yl)methyl]-10-methylpyrido[1,2-a]indol-6(7H)-one (1.84 g).
