Reaction Steps

The cyano group in compound 15 is then converted into the carbamimidoyl group by first treating 15 with hydrogen chloride gas in an anhydrous alcoholic solvent such as methanol, ethanol and the like, and then treating the resulting (5-methoxycarbonimidolyl)-2-(2-hydroxybiphenyl-3-yl)-1H-indole 16 with an inorganic base such as ammonium carbonate, and the like in an alcoholic solvent such as methanol, ethanol, or with excess ammonia to give resulting (5-carbamimidolyl)-2-(2-hydroxybiphenyl-3-yl)-1H-indole of Formula I. Alternatively, compound 15 can be converted to a compound of Formula I by first refluxing it with hydroxylamine in an alcoholic solvent such as ethanol and then treating the resulting (N-hydroxycarbamimidoyl)-2-(2-hydroxybiphenyl-3-yl)-1H-indole with acetic anhydride in acetic acid to give (N-acetoxycarbamimidoyl)-2-(2-hydroxybiphenyl-3-yl)-1H-indole. The acetoxy group is then removed under hydrogenation reaction conditions by treating (N-acetoxycarbamimidoyl)-2-(2-hydroxybiphenyl-3-yl)-1H-indole with 10% palladium in an alcoholic solvent such as methanol, ethanol, and the like.
