Reaktionsschritte

Potassium hydroxide (669 mg, 7.7 mmol) was added to a solution of ethyl (2R)-4-(5-fluoro-4-iodo-2-oxopyridin-1(2H)-yl)-2-methyl-2-(methylsulfonyl)butanoate (691 mg, 1.55 mmol) in 2-methyltetrahydrofuran:water (2:1 22.5 mL) and the solution was stirred at 70° C. for 2 h. The reaction was diluted with 1 N aq NaOH (50 mL). The organics were separated and the aqueous layer was washed with EtOAc (2×50 mL), and acidified to a pH of 3 using 3 M aqueous HCl. The aqueous layer was extracted with EtOAc (3×60 mL), dried (MgSO4), filtered and concentrated to afford a yellow-white solid (290 mg, 44.8%).
