Lithium Hydroxide → 3-{1-[5-Chloro-2-(4-chloro-benzyloxy)-benzyl]-5-methyl-1H-pyrazol-3-YL}-propionic acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of ester 7 (0.31 g, 0.65 mmol) in THF (5 mL) was added a solution of LiOH (0.06 g, 1.40 mmol) in water (2 mL) and the resulting mixture was stirred at RT overnight. The volatiles were removed in vacuo. The residue was diluted with water (5 mL) and acidified to pH 1 with 2 M HCl. The acid 8 was isolated by filtration as a white solid and washed with water and dried overnight over KOH in a dessicator to yield 0.09 g (34%).
