Procedure
To a solution of [3-(1H-indol-5-yl)-3-phenyl-propyl]-carbamic acid methylester X (0.52 g, 1.7 mmol) in THF (35 ml), LiAlH4 (321 mg, 8.4 mmol) was slowly added. The mixture was refluxed for 1.5 hours, cooled to room temperature, and quenched by slow addition of freshly ground Na2SO4.10H2O. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour, filtered through celite with EtOAc. The filtrate was evaporated and purified via flash chromatography (DCM/MeOH/NH4OH) affording [3-(1H-indol-5-yl)-3-phenyl-propyl]-methyl-amine (XI) as an off-white foam (408 mg, 91% yield). The amine compound was dissolved in a Et2O/THF mixture and HCl (2 M in Et2O, 0.772 ml) was added. The precipitate was filtered, washed with Et2O, and dried affording [3-(1H-indol-5-yl)-3-phenyl-propyl]-methyl-amine hydrochloride salt (371 mg, 80% yield). MS (M+H)=265.
