Procedure
To a cooled solution (ice/methanol bath) of 3-(1-cyclohexylmethyl-7-methoxy-1H-indol-3-yl)-[1,2,4]thiadiazole-5-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (4.0 g, 10 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (80 ml) and methanol (80 ml) was added sodium borohydride portion-wise. The reaction was stirred for a further 20 minutes and then quenched with 1M hydrochloric acid (20 ml). The methanol and tetrahydrofuran were removed in vacuo and dichloromethane (200 ml) and 2M hydrochloric acid (50 ml) were added. The organics were separated and washed with brine (50 ml), dried over magnesium sulfate and the solvent removed in vacuo. The resulting residue was purified by flash column chromatography eluting with 50% (v/v) diethyl ether in heptane to give [3-(1-cyclohexylmethyl-7-methoxy-1H-indol-3-yl)-[1,2,4]thiadiazol-5-yl]-methanol (3.15 g, 8.8 mmol) as a light pink solid.
