Procedure

A 250-mL round-bottomed flask was purged with nitrogen and charged with 127b (2.0 g, 11.4 mmol), 10% palladium on carbon (50% wet, 200 mg), and methanol (50 mL). It was evacuated, charged with hydrogen gas, and stirred under 5 atm hydrogen at room temperature for 8 h. The hydrogen was then evacuated and nitrogen was charged into the flask. The catalyst was removed by filtration through a pad of CELITE® and the filtrate concentrated under reduced pressure to afford 127c as a white solid (1.1 g, 81%). MS-ESI: [M+H]+ 180.3. 1H NMR (500 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 7.25 (d, J=2.0 Hz, 1H), 6.09 (s, 1H), 3.93 (t, J=6.0 Hz, 2H), 3.66 (s, 3H), 2.67 (t, J=6.0 Hz, 2H), 1.87-1.83 (m, 2H), 1.75-1.70 (m, 2H).
