Procedure
To a stirred solution of ethyl (4-nitro-2,3-dihydro-1H-indol-3-yl)acetate, enantiomer B, from Step B (1.50 g, 5.99 mmol) in H2O (50 mL) and EtOH (42 mL) was added sodium hydrosulfite (ca. 85%; 4.91 g, 24 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 1 h, then 3 N hydrochloric acid (14 mL, 42 mmol) was added and the solution was heated to 100° C. for 3 h. The cooled mixture was adjusted to pH 8 with saturated aqueous NaHCO3, then extracted with CH2Cl2 (6×200 mL). The combined organic extracts were dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo to give the title compound. MS: m/z=175 (M+1).
