Reaction Steps

2.675 g 5-Nitro-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine in 200 ml THF were hydrogenated over 1.0 g Platinum on carbon at atmospheric pressure for 3 hrs at RT (with thin layer chromatography (TLC) control). The catalyst was removed by filtration, the filtrate was evaporated and the residue purified by chromatography on silica in ethyl acetate/heptane mixtures.
