Reaction Steps

A solution of the product of Example 214C (1.4 g, 3.09 mmol), iron powder (0.70 g, 12 mmol) and ammonium chloride (0.18 g, 3.41 mmol) in a methanol (10 mL), tetrahydrofuran (10 mL), and water (5 mL) solution was heated to reflux for 1.5 hours. The resultant mixture was diluted with methanol (50 mL) and filtered through a pad of celite. The filtrate was concentrated under vacuum to a volume of 10 mL, the solution diluted with water (50 mL) and extracted with ethyl acetate (2×50 mL). The combined extracts were washed with 10% sodium chloride then dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under vacuum to provide the title compound (1.1 g, 90%).
