Procedure

A solution of ethyl 9-(3-chlorobenzyl)-6-nitro-9H-β-carboline-3-carboxylate (2.7 g, 6.59 mmol) and titanium(III) chloride (36 mL, 20% solution, 46.75 mmol) in a mixture of acetic acid (54 mL), THF (180 mL), water (54 mL) and DMF (10 mL) was stirred for 5 hours at ambient temperature. The reaction mixture was quenched with water (200 mL), and extracted with ethyl acetate (100 mL). The pH of the water layer was adjusted to 7 with saturated Na2CO3 aqueous solution. Then, the resulting precipitate was filtered and dried in vacuo. The product was extracted from the precipitate with CHCl3 in a Soxhlet extractor and purified by chromatography with ethyl acetate to provide the title compound (0.70 g, yield 27.8%). 1H NMR (DMSO-d6): δ 9.06 (s, 1H), 8.70 (s, 1H), 7.50 (d, 1H, J=8.0 Hz), 7.45 (s, 1H), 7.27–7.31 (m, 3H), 7.09 (s, 1H), 7.01 (d, 1H, J=8.0 Hz), 5.75 (s, 2H), 5.05 (s, 2H), 4.36 (q, 2H, J=7.0 Hz), 1.35 (t, 3H, J=7.0 Hz). LCMS (APCI, M+H+): 380.1/382.1=3/1.
