Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 1-acetyl-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin-6-yl acetate (0.635 g, 2.9 mmol) and K2CO3 (1.6 g, 12 mmol) in MeOH/H2O (20 mL/20 mL) was stirred at room temperature for 12 h. The reaction mixture was concentrated to half its volume and extracted with CHCl3. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous MgSO4 and evaporated to give a residue, which was further purified on a silica gel column to give 1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin-6-ol (0.233 g, 60%).
