Procedure

To a solution of 1-(3,5-Difluoro-benzyl)-3-(2-nitro-phenylsulfanyl)-1H-indole-6-carboxylic acid methyl ester (150.0 mg, 0.33 mmol) in dioxane (20 mL) and water (15 mL) was added LiOH.H2O (83.1 mg, 2.0 mmol) in 5 ml water. The reaction mixture was stirred overnight at 60° C. The mixture was then acidified to pH 4 by addition of 15% aqueous HCl and the mixture was extracted twice with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layers were dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated in vacuo to give a yellow powder. The product was recrystallised from heptane/ethyl acetate to give the title compound as yellow/orange crystals (129.3 mg, y=89%)
