Reaction Steps

To a solution of N-benzyl-3-(1H-indol-3-yl)-N-[2-(2-methoxy-phenoxy)-ethyl]-propion-amide in tetrahydrofuran (50 mL) at room temperature was added lithium aluminum hydride (1.8 g). The reaction was heated to reflux for 12 hours then allowed to cool to room temperature. The reaction was quenched with saturated ammonium chloride and the solid precipitates filtered through celite. The solvent was concentrated under vacuum and the product purified by chromatography (5% methanol-methylene chloride) to afford 2.0 g (86%) of product as a yellow oil. MS EI m/e 414 (M+).
