Procedure
To a solution of 5-(2-hydroxy-2-pyridin-4-yl-ethyl)-2-methyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-pyrido[4,3-b]indole-8-carboxylic acid methyl ester (180 mg, 0.493 mmol) in dry THF (12 mL) was portionwise added LAH (56 mg, 1.479 mmol) under nitrogen atmosphere, and the reaction mixture stirred at RT for 2 h. The reaction mixture was cooled to −78° C. and quenched with ice water (0.6 mL), 10% NaOH (0.6 mL) and water (1.8 mL), and the solid filtered. The filtrate was concentrated and the residue was purified by reverse phase HPLC to yield 2-(8-hydroxymethyl-2-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-pyrido[4,3-b]indol-5-yl)-1-pyridin-4-yl-ethanol. 1H NMR (CD3OD, freebase) δ (ppm): 8.4 (d, 2H), 7.4 (s, 1H), 7.27-7.38 (m, 3H), 7.18 (d, 1H), 5.1 (t, 1H), 4.62 (s, 2H), 4.3 (d, 2H), 4.0 (dd, 2H), 3.2 (m, 1H), 3.1 (m, 2H), 2.73 (m, 1H), 2.7 (s, 3H). Separation by chiral HPLC provides enantiomers II-60a-b.
