Procedure
To a solution of methyl 2-oxo-1-phenyl-1,2-dihydropyridine-4-carboxylate (272 mg, 1.03 mmol) in alcohol/water (v/v=1/1, 5 mL) was added lithium hydroxide (62 mg, 1.55 mmol), and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 8 hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated, acidified by diluted aqueous hydrochloric acid (1 N, 5 mL) and extracted with ethyl acetate (2×10 ml). The combined organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure to afford 2-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-indole-3-carboxylic acid as white solid (115 mg, 44%). LRMS (M−H+) m/z: calcd for 251.09. found 251.
