3-(4-Benzyloxy-2-fluoro-5-methoxy-benzyl)-1-triisopropylsilanyl-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine → 5-Fluoro-2-methoxy-4-(1-triisopropylsilanyl-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin-3-ylmethyl)-phenol

Participants

Reaction Steps

3-(4-Benzyloxy-2-fluoro-5-methoxy-benzyl)-1-triisopropylsilanyl-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine (86, 0.831 g, 1.60 mmol) was dissolved in methanol (40 mL) and tetrahydrofuran (40 mL). 10% Palladium on carbon (3.41 g) was added. The reaction was shaken at 50 psi for 1 hour. The reaction was filtered through Celite and washed with methanol. The organic portion was passed through celite several times until a clear solution was obtained. The organic portion was concentrated under reduced pressure to provide the desired compound as an off-white solid (87, 587 mg, 86%).
