The compound of Example 2, methyl 4-[(2,3,4,6-Tetrahydro-3-methyl-1-(2-methylpropyl)-6-(1-naphthalenylmethyl)-2,4-dioxo-1H-pyrrolo[3,4-d]-pyrimidin-5-yl)thio]butanoate (400 mg), was dissolved in 3:1:1 tetrahydrofuran/methanol/1M lithium hydroxide and stirred for 1.5 h before being acidified by dropwise addition of concentrated hydrochloric acid (HCl). The mixture was then extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic phase was washed with brine, dried over magnesium sulphate (MgSO4) and evaporated to dryness in vacuo. The resultant yellow oil was chromatographed (silica), eluting with 200:10:1 dichloromethane/methanol/glacial acetic acid. The resultant red oil was dissolved in toluene and then evaporated, then similarly with trichloromethane to yield a pink foam. The foam was recrystallised from ethyl acetate/hexane to yield 129 mg of the title compound.
