Procedure
A suspension of lithium aluminum hydride (0.020 g, 0.53 mmol) in anhydrous tetrahydrofuran (5 ml) at −45° C. was treated with a solution 2-(3-cyano-1H-indol-5-ylmethyl)-cyclopropanecarboxylic acid methoxy-methyl-amide in 5 ml tetrahydrofuran. After 30 min at −45° C. an additional 0.53 mmol lithium aluminum hydride was added. The reaction was quenched with water followed by 1 N sodium hydroxide after another 30 min. The aluminum salts were removed by filtration and the filtrate was concentrated in vacuo to afford 5-(2-Formyl-cyclopropylmethyl)-1H-indole-3-carbonitrile (0.034 g, 57%) as a light yellow film. 1H-NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) 9.07 (1H, d, J=5.16 Hz), 7.71 (1H, s), 7.58 (1H, s), 7.39 (1H, d, J=8.2 Hz), 7.22 (1H, m), 6.98 (1H, s), 2.80 (2H, m), 1.86 (2H), 1.40 (1H, m), 1.11 (1H, m).
