A solution of 1.52 g (4.7 mmole) of 3-(5-benzyloxy-1-indolinyl)benzonitrile of Example 18b in 60 ml acetic anhydride over 0.2 g Raney Nickel (#28 finely divided) and 0.76 g (9.3 mmole, 2 equivalents) sodium acetate was shaken at 50° C. under 50 psi of hydrogen until gas uptake had ceased and TLC analysis showed the reduction to be complete. The catalyst was filtered on a pad of celite and the filtrate was partitioned between chloroform (40 ml) and water (400 ml) and the combined organic portions were washed twice with water (600 ml), aqueous NaHCO3 (two 600 ml portions) and brine, dried over Na2SO4, and concentrated to give an oil. Chromatography on silica gel (80 g) using 1-5% methanol in ether afforded 1.31 g (86.8%) of N-Acetyl-3-(5-benzyloxy-1-indolinyl)benzenemethanamine as an oil.
