To a solution of methyl 1-benzyl-2-methyl-1H-indole-3-carboxylate (446 mg, 1.6 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (20 mL) and methanol (7 mL) was added sodium hydroxide (320 mg, 8 mmol) in water (7 mL), then stirred at 60° C. for 12 hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo and acidified to PH=4 with 6 N hydrochloric acid, collected and dried to give 1-benzyl-2-methyl-1H-indole-3-carboxylic acid as a white solid (212 mg, 50%). LRMS (M+H+) m/z: calcd 265.11. found 265.
