Procedure

To a stirred solution of [3-(2-benzenesulfonyl-pyridin-3-ylmethyl)-5-fluoro-2-methyl-indol-1-yl]-acetic acid ethyl ester (1.20 g, 2.56 mmol) in THF (26 ml) was added a solution of potassium hydroxide (0.43 g, 7.68 mmol) in water (9 ml). The resulting solution was stirred at room temperature for 3.5 h. THF was removed in vacuo and the remaining aqueous layer was acidified with aqueous HCl (0.1 M, 25 ml). The product was collected by filtration, washed with water and dried in vacuo to afford 1.12 g (100%) of the title compound (LCMS RT=4.58 min, M+-H 437.2).
