Procedure: To a stirred suspension of LAH (3.4 g, 90 mmol) in THF (40 mL, anhyd) chilled to 0° C. was added a solution of 2-(1H-indol-3-yl)propionitrile (2.5 g, 14.7 mmol) in THF (40 mL, anhyd). The reaction mixture was allowed to warm to ambient temperature and then heated at reflux. After 1 hour, the reaction mixture was cooled to 0° C. and quenched cautiously with wet THF (5-10% H2O) until gas evolution had ceased. The resulting mixture was filtered through Celite™ and concentrated to give a brown residue. The filtering agent was rinsed with Et2O (100 mL), which was combined with the residue, dried (Na2SO4), and concentrated under reduced pressure to yield 2-(1H-indol-3-yl)propylamine (2.1 g, 82%) as a pale amber oil; 1H-NMR (CDCl3): δ 8.28 (1H, br s), 7.61 (1H, d), 7.36 (1H, d), 7.16 (1H, app t), 7.08 (1H, app t), 6.96 (1H, br s), 3.41 (2H, br s), 3.19 (1H, q), 2.95 (2H, app d), 1.35 (3H, d). to warm to ambient temperature heated at reflux the reaction mixture was cooled to 0° C. quenched cautiously with wet THF (5-10% H2O) until gas evolution The resulting mixture was filtered through Celite™ concentrated to give a brown residue The filtering agent was rinsed with Et2O (100 mL), which dried (Na2SO4) concentrated under reduced pressure
