Reaction Steps

At room temperature, 50 mg of palladium on carbon (10%) were added to a solution of 860 mg (2.91 mmol) of methyl 4-(benzylamino)-2-methyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-2-carboxylate in 84 ml of methanol, and the mixture was hydrogenated under atmospheric pressure overnight. After the reaction had gone to completion, the reaction solution was filtered through kieselguhr and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude product obtained was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel (mobile phase cyclohexane/ethyl acetate 10:1→1:1). This gave 483 mg (2.35 mol, 81% of theory) of a colorless solid.
