Reaktionsschritte

To a mixture of methanol (8 ml), water (6 ml) and 2N sodium hydroxide (2 ml, 4 mmol) was added ethyl 3-(4,5,7-trifluorobenzothiazol-2-yl)propionate (1.1 g, 3.8 mmol) and the mixture was stirred for 15 min. at ambient temperature. The reaction solution was diluted with water and then extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with water, then dried and evaporated to yield a residue, which was recrystallized from hexane-isopropyl ether to give 3-(4,5,7-trifluorobenzothiazol-2-yl)propionic acid (840 mg, 85%) as colorless needles.
