Lithium hydroxide, monohydrate → 4-(2-Pyridin-2-yl-5,6-dihydro-4H-pyrrolo[1,2-b]pyrazol-3-yl)-quinoline-7-carboxylic Acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

Lithium hydroxide monohydrate (0.65 g, 15.6 mmol) is added to a solution of 4-(2-pyridin-2-yl-5,6-dihydro-4H-pyrrolo[1,2-b]pyrazol-3-yl)-quinoline-7-carboxylic acid methyl ester (1.44 g, 3.89 mmol) in 2:1 tetrahydrofuran/water (30 mL), stirred at room temperature for 18 h, and concentrated in vacuo. The residue is purified by SCX resin, (2 N ammonia in methanol), to yield the title compound, 1.22 g (88%), as a tan solid.
