Procedure
To a stirred solution of N-{2-[2-(3,5-dimethylphenyl)-5-nitro-1H-indol-3-yl]ethyl}benzamide (1.7 g in 130 mL dry tetrahydrofuran) was added 35 mL of a IM solution of borane in tetrahydrofuran and the mixture heated slowly to reflux on an oil bath. After 2 hours the mixture was cooled to room temperature and the excess borane quenched by the careful addition of methanol. The mixture was concentrated to half-volume, treated with N,N-dimethylethanolamine (13 mL) and heated to reflux on an oil bath. After 3 hours the mixture was cooled to room temperature and concentrated in vacuo. Purification by flash chromatography on silica gel (methylene chloride:methanol, 97:3) gave the title compound (1.5 g).
