(6-methoxy-indan-1-ylidene)-acetic acid ethyl ester (3.18 g, 14.5 mmol) was dissolved in MeOH (30 ml). A catalytic amount of 10% Pd/C was added and the reaction was stirred under an atmosphere of hydrogen (balloon) for 2 h. The reaction mixture was filtered through Celite to provide pure (6-methoxy-indan-1-yl)-acetic acid ethyl ester (2.98 g, 94%) as a clear oil. LCMS: 235.0 (M+1)+.
