Procedure
89 Grams of 3-formylmethyl-1-methyloxindole and 54 g of sodium bisulfite was dissolved in a mixed solvent of 75 ml of water with 150 ml of ether, then to the resultant mixture was added dropwise a solution of 28 g of sodium cyanide with 60 ml of water, under stirring at a room temperature. The reaction mixture was stirred for 1 hour, then water was added to the reaction mixture until the crystals formed were dissolved, the whole reaction mixture was further stirred for 1 hour. The crystals formed were collected by filtration, washed with water, dried and recrystallized from benzene to obtain 30 g of 3-(2-cyano2-hydroxyethyl)-1-methyloxindole in the form of white powdery substance. Melting point: 136°-138°C.)
