Reaction Steps

A mixture of ethyl 2-(1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2,8-dimethylpyrido[4,3-b]indol-5-yl)acetate and NaOH in ethanol was stirred at 50° C. for 3 h after which it was cooled to RT and neutralized with conc. HCl. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure to obtain crude 2-(1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2,8-dimethylpyrido[4,3-b]indol-5-yl)acetic acid.
