Procedure

Lithium aluminum hydride (105 mg, 2.77 mmol) was added in three portions to a solution of ethyl 5-chloro-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-c]pyridine-2-carboxylate (410 mg, 1.83 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (15 mL) under stirring at 0° C. under a nitrogen atmosphere. The reaction mixture was warmed to room temperature and then heated to 60° C. for 3 h. The reaction mixture was quenched by the gradual addition of hydrated sodium sulfate. The sodium sulfate was removed by filtration and washed thoroughly with tetrahydrofuran to give a yellow filtrate, which was concentrated to a brown solid. After sonication in diethyl ether for 20 minutes, the solid was collected by filtration and dried to give (5-chloro-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-c]pyridin-2-yl)methanol (225 mg, 67%) as a brown solid: 1H NMR (300 MHz, Acetone-d6) δ4.52-4.89 (3H, m), 6.38 (1H, s), 7.47 (1H, s), 8.49 (1H, s), 10.88 (1H, br s).
