Procedure

To a stirred solution of 6-fluoro-2′-oxo-1′-[2-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl]-1′,2′-dihydrospiro[1-benzofuran-3,3′-indole]-5-carbonitrile (0.44 g, 1.0 mmol) in 1,2-dimethoxyethane (20 mL) was added hydrazine monohydrate (1.0 mL, 21 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at reflux for 19 h and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was dissolved in ethanol (20 mL) and isoamyl nitrite (1.50 mL, 10.7 mmol), and hypophosphorous acid (2.0 mL, 18 mmol) was added. The reaction mixture was allowed to stir at ambient temperature for 18 h, neutralized with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×100 mL). The combined organic extracts was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and filtered. The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo. The residue was subjected to column chromatography and eluted with ethyl acetate/hexanes (1/1) to afford 1′-[2-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl]-1H-spiro[furo[3,2-f]indazole-5,3′-indol]-2′(1′H)-one (0.04 g, 10%): mp 124-126° C. (ethyl acetate/hexanes); 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 12.83 (s, 1H), 7.83-7.0 (m, 2H), 7.67-7.63 (m, 1H), 7.54-7.49 (m, 1H), 7.27-7.18 (m, 4H), 7.08-7.03 (m, 1H), 6.95-6.94 (m, 1H), 6.81-6.77 (m, 1H), 5.07-4.83 (m, 4H); MS (ES−) m/z 436.2 (M−1).
