Reaction Steps

Under an argon atmosphere a solution of 9.30 mL (9.30 mmol) of a 1M solution lithium aluminium hydride in THF and 10 mL THF was slowly added dropwise to 1.40 g (7.81 mmol) 5-fluoro-3,3-dimethyl-1,3-dihydroindol-2-one in 50 mL THF. Then the reaction mixture was heated to 70° C. for 1 h. After cooling 2 mL water were added. The solution was dried on sodium sulphate and filtered off. The solvent was eliminated i. vac.
