Procedure

In a 500 mL autoclave, a solution of 2-tert-butyl-5-chloro-1H-pyrrolo[3,2-b]pyridine (5.0 g, 24 mmol) and CuSO4.5H2O (0.5 g, 2.0 mmol) in aqueous ammonia (200 mL) and CH3OH (100 mL) was heated at 180° C. (at this temperature, the pressure in the autoclave was about 2 MPa) and stirred for 10 hours. The mixture was allowed to cool down to room temperature. The solvent was removed by evaporation under vacuum. The resulting mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate (100 mL×3). The combined organic layers were dried over anhydrous Na2SO4 and evaporated under vacuum to give the crude product, which was purified by the preparative HPLC to give 2-tert-butyl-1H-pyrrolo[3,2-b]pyridin-5-amine (1.15 g, 26%).
