At this time, lithium hydroxide monohydrate (87 μL, 3.14 mmol) was added and the flask was gently heated on aluminum block for 5 min. The solid went into solution and LC/MS showed product formation. The contents of the reaction were poured into HCl (1 M, 15 mL) and extracted with DCM (15 mL). An emulsion formed, the layers separated, and a white solid formed at the boundary of the layers and stuck to the separatory funnel. This material was collected, dissolved in MeOH, and concentrated. After drying under high vacuum for 2 h, the 1-oxoisoindoline-5-carboxylic acid thus obtained was taken on directly to the next reaction without further purification.
