Procedure
Lithium hydroxide monohydrate (0.33 g, 0.0079 mol) was added to a solution of methyl 5-chloro-3-(3,5-dimethylphenylthio)indole-2-carboxylate (1.0 g, 0.0026 mol) in tetrahydrofuran (30 mL) and water (30 mL), then reaction was stirred at room temperature for 4 days. After dilution with water the mixture was acidified with 1N HCl and extracted with ethyl acetate. Organic reaction was washed with brine and dried. Evaporation of the solvent furnished 0.94 (100%) of title compound, mp 277-278° C. (from ethanol).
