To methyl 4-(3-amino-6-cyclopropylpyrazin-2-yl)-2-fluorobenzoate (250 mg, 0.870 mmol) in THF (6 mL) and MeOH (3 mL) was added 1M LiOH (1.740 mL, 1.740 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 h. The pH of reaction mixtures was adjusted to ˜4 by aqueous. 2N HCl. The reaction mixture was partitioned between EtOAc and water. The organic layer was separated, washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and evaporated to yield 4-(3-amino-6-cyclopropylpyrazin-2-yl)-2-fluorobenzoic acid (230 mg, 97%) as a light yellow solid. LCMS (m/z): 274.2 (MH+), 0.621 min.
