Procedure
A solution of the 9-[(3-chlorophenyl)methyl]-4-hydroxy-5-carbomethoxy carbazole (156.2 mg, 0.43 mM) in 5 mL THF and 20 mL concentrated aqueous ammonium hydroxide was sonicated for 5 hours at 40-50° C. The mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate and acidified to pH 1 with 5 N HCl. The aqueous layer was extracted twice with ethyl acetate. The combined organic extracts were washed with saturated brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated. The residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (elution with gradient methylene chloride/ethyl acetate) to afford 69.7 mg (47%) of the 9-[(3-chlorophenyl)methyl]-4-hydroxy-5-carbamoyl carbazole as a white solid. 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) δ 10.5 (s, 1H), 8.8 (br s, 1H), 8.4 (br s, 1H), 7.8 (dd, 1H, J=1 and 8 Hz), 7.45 (m, 2H), 7.3 (m, 3H), 7.2 (s, 1H), 7.1 (d, 1H, J=8 Hz), 6.95 (s, 1H), 6.6 (d, 1H, J=8 Hz), and 5.7 (s, 2H).
