Procedure
Lithium aluminum hydride (0.5M solution in diglyme, 13.8 mL, 6.9 mmol) was added dropwise at 0° C. to methyl 3-(2-oxoindolin-3-yl)propanoate (1.51 g, 6.90 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (30 mL). The mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature and then quenched with 2N aqueous hydrochloric acid. The reaction was extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed with brine, dried (MgSO4) and evaporated. The residue was purified by Biotage flash column chromatography (50% ethyl acetate/hexanes) to give product as a white solid (1.13 g, 86%); 1H NMR (DMSO-d6); δ1.38 (m, 2H); 1.85 (m, 2H); 3.32-3.38 (t, J=6.4 Hz, 1H); 4.38 (t, J=5.2 Hz, 1H); 6.80 (d, J=8 Hz, 1H); 6.94 (m, 1H); 7.16 (m, 1H); 7.22 (d, J=7.2 Hz, 1H); 10.3 (s, 2H)
