To a stirred solution of Product of Step B (0.25 g, 1.21 mmol) in a mixture of THF, MeOH and H2O (5 ml:2 ml:1 ml), LiOH (0.145 g, 6 mmol) in H2O (0.5 ml) was added and the mixture was stirred for 3 h at room temp. The solvents were distilled off and the residue was portioned between EtOAc (20 ml) and 1M HCl (2 ml). The organic layer was washed with H2O, dried over MgSO4 and filtered. The filtrate was evaporated to dryness to give the title compound (0.21 g, 91%), as a colourless solid. 1H-NMR (DMSO-d6) 7.61 (d, 1H, J=8.67 Hz); 7.54 (s, 1H); 7.24 (d, 1H, J=1.59 Hz); 6.93 (dd, 1H, J=8.67, 2.4 Hz); 3.8 (s, 3H).
