• )-impurity 21 (Scheme 4). The catalytic hydrogenation of indole 19 proved to be a difficult reaction as significant formation of the dehalogenated products was observed, repeated recrystallization from MeOH afforded pure indole 20. Since dehalogenation was observed during the platinum oxide reduction of the

Such a process complies with the long-standing pursuit of an environmentally acceptable process for desulfurisation, dehalogenation or deoxygenation that operates under mild reaction conditions. In this context, special attention must be paid to a paper
