Procedure

At room temperature and under normal pressure, 7 g (18 mmol) of 6-benzyloxy-4-methoxymethyl-β-carboline-3-carboxylic acid isopropyl ester is hydrogenated in 600 ml of ethanol with 7 g of palladium/carbon (10%) as well as hydrogen for 8.5 hours. After the mixture has been removed from the catalyst by filtration, it is concentrated, thus obtaining 4.8 g (90% yield) of 6-hydroxy-4-methoxymethyl-β-carboline-3-carboxylic acid isopropyl ester which is further reacted without any additional purification.
